At Vets of Geelong, we don’t take shortcuts when it comes to anaesthetising brachycephalic dogs. Our proven approach has made us the trusted clinic for flat-faced breeds across Geelong.
Here’s how we increase safety at every step:
✅ Pre-Anaesthetic Medications at Home – We prescribe medications for your dog to take the night before and the morning of their procedure. These help reduce anxiety and improve breathing even before they arrive at the clinic.
✅Specialised Medications Upon Arrival – When your dog arrives at our clinic, they receive carefully selected sedation medications that keep them calm and reduce anaesthetic risks.
✅Pre-Oxygenation for Safer Induction – We give your dog extra oxygen before anaesthesia to optimise their oxygen levels.
✅ Airway Management & Tailored Anaesthetic Plan – We use specialised airway equipment, precise drug dosages, and constant monitoring to keep your dog breathing safely throughout their procedure.
✅Extra Recovery Medications & Support – After surgery, your dog receives additional medications to reduce nausea, manage pain, and improve their breathing. We keep them under close observation until they are fully awake, stable, and comfortable.
