#46 • Prof. Dr. Jerold Bell – Educating about breathing and breeding issues in short-nosed dogs
In this podcast episode, Prof. Dr. Jerold Bell, a professor of Veterinary genetics and chairman of WSAVA’s hereditary Disease Committee, joins the host Wolfgang Dohne to discuss the emerging crisis of hereditary diseases in dog breeding, with a focus on brachiocephalic breeds. They emphasize the importance of health-focused breeding practices, the need to select against clinically affected individuals, and ongoing genetic investigations to uncover the specific genes associated with these diseases. The episode highlights the global efforts being made to raise awareness, educate breeders and dog owners, and improve the overall health of these breeds through collaborative initiatives and informative videos. The World Small Animal Veterinary Association has created a short educational video on Brachycephalic Obstructive Airway Syndrome (BOAS) available on the link: https://youtu.be/cPhePMIrayo www.wsava.org/boas
