Exciting news—Gigi has passed her BOAS test with a Grade 0, the best possible score! This means she has excellent respiratory health, making her an ideal candidate for breeding. But why is BOAS testing so important, and how does it benefit LaRoyal puppy owners? Why BOAS Testing MattersBrachycephalic Obstructive Airway Syndrome (BOAS) affects short-nosed breeds like Bulldogs, causing breathing difficulties that can impact their quality of life. The BOAS Grading Scheme, developed by The Kennel Club and the University of Cambridge, evaluates a dog’s breathing before and after light exercise. Dogs are graded from 0 to 3: When I first discovered the convenience of a local private dog field, it felt like the perfect solution. In theory, it seemed like a win-win for my dogs and me. No worries about off-leash encounters, no car fumes, and a chance for the dogs to burn off energy without interruptions.
Yet, after some time, I realised this setup wasn’t quite as idyllic as I initially thought.
These brachycephalic breeds, known for their cute, baby-like faces and large eyes, have been gaining popularity for decades.
According to the study from Hungary, their helplessness is the key. When faced with a problem, they're more likely to seek help from humans rather than solve it themselves. I was dumbfounded by the above, but it's most certainly true from my years of experience, and I even wrote about my IQ and EQ differences with my Bulldog vs. Labrador emails.
