The veterinarian shares 5 dog breeds which often develop health problems
There is "too much potential for sorrow" with these breeds.
Dogs are among the most special creatures on earth - they offer loyalty, protection, love, dedication, comfort and unconditional company. Unfortunately, some were too high at the point where health problems are data. For dog owners for the first time and experienced canine lovers, choosing a breed to bring in your home and your life is a serious decision with long -term consequences.
Dr Ben Simpson-Vernon , also known as Ben the veterinarian , knows in the first hand how terrible it is to see an animal suffering from being predisposed to serious health problems that can cause pain and low quality of life. He kindly shares a lot of information on his social media pages on his life as a small animal veterinarian, but especially on dogs and which tend to have unfortunate problems. Here are 5 breeds of Simpson-Vernon dogs says that he would never have as a veterinary surgeon.
Simpson-Vernon says that the Chow Chow is not a good choice for reasons beyond poor health. "I'm sure there are beautiful, but I just find that they often don't have a very good temperament", he said . "They can be really distant, and they are often very aggressive in veterinarians. It is quite difficult to put a muzzle on their face. They suffer quite commonly with a ton of eye problems." Chow dogs are known to develop ocular drought and conjunctivitis.

King Charles Cavalier Spaniel
Simpson-Vernon incredibly likes King Charles Cavaliers but underlines the high probability of illness in the breed. "These are the most beautiful dogs, and if I was going to choose a dog breed for myself - if it was not for all their health problems - it would probably be CAVI," he said. "But they have a lot of problems. Almost all, everyone gets the same type of heart disease called the mitral valve disease, which means that many of them spend their last days coughing and failing, fighting to breathe and finally Dying from heart failure to heart failure ... In my opinion, the selection of a dog with such a high probability of illness is not fair.
Simpson -Vernon loves the personality of the Disckeels - dogs or dogs of Weiner sausage - but the potential for illness is too much. "Once again, they are really adorable dogs, and some of my favorite patients are sausage dogs," he said. "But one in four of them develops back problems during their life which can go from pain only to paralysis. Personalities, but quite simply too much potential for sorrow."

Shar Pei
Simpson-Vernon says that Shar Pei dogs are so subject to disease that they have a condition (Shar Pei fever) named after them. "There are people who reproduce Shar can less exaggerated, but most of them are too wrinkled," he said. "They are so wrinkled that they must have their eyelids nailed in place so that the hair does not rub on the eyes. They always have skin problems. They have tiny narrow ear canals. In veterinarians, they "Often try to bite the face of all the staff.
The number one on the prohibited list of Simpson-Vernon is a kind of flat face breed such as French Bulldog, Bulldog or a CARLIN. "Society has standardized the fact that these dogs sniff means that they cannot breathe very well," he said. "There are specimens of these dogs which are healthier than the others, but they are so subject to so many problems. Problems of the spine, skin problems, eye problems. The fact that more than half of them must have a cesarean to give birth to an ethical problem for me to never want to have one.
