  1. 🐶🧪 A new treatment for brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome uses a modified toxin to increase muscle tone in the mouth and throat

    The process helps keep airways open during physical activity and reduces the need for invasive corrective surgeries. Initial tests on six #bulldogs showed measurable improvements in breathing efficiency and exercise capacity.

    Anyone can vote and there's been a jump from a 50 vote difference with 853 to 900 to 942-943 just now - so it's all about getting as many new voters in as possible. 3 hours to #vote!

  11. Concern over hugely popular squashed-face breeds such as #pugs and #French #bulldogs has grown in recent years, not least because they are prone to short lives and myriad health problems.

    One of the main worries with such brachycephalic breeds is that their flat faces mean they are susceptible to respiratory problems.
    Experts say #noisy breathing, #snoring and #fainting after exercise are all signs that a dog is struggling for air.
    Some even require surgery to open their nostrils or remove soft tissue to help them breathe.

    Now concerns have been raised that Crufts has gone to the dogs after a French bulldog called #Elton scooped top gongs at the show.

    Among those to express their unease was Jemima Harrison, an award-winning producer and director of science-led documentaries and a campaigner for health and welfare reform in dog breeding.
    “This French bulldog – with no discernible nostrils and an almost concave face – won not just best of breed at Crufts today but also the Utility Group,” she wrote on X. “A terrible day for the breed. Am gutted.”
    Dr Sean McCormack, a vet and presenter, also noted that Elton had severely pinched nostrils.
    “Nothing like the revised breed standard that asked for more muzzle, more nose, to alleviate the health problems associated with being such a flat-faced breed,” he said in a TikTok video.
    The breed standard for the French bulldog, released in 2021, states that such dogs should have a “well defined muzzle that can clearly be viewed in profile” and nostrils that should be “visibly” open.

  20. It amazes me how much I can love a ~1.5 mile stretch of (now permanently car-free) road like #JFKPromenade , but I think that speaks to how brutally starved we are for city spaces which are free from car culture and car dominance. Anyway, here’s Atlas on a #bike to cultivate some joy in an emotionally draining week. 💫
