Questions around Entropion surgery

Post by AuntiePancake »

Hi everyone, we have a one year old chow who needs Entropion surgery and I wanted to ask for guidance.. He got eyelid surgery two times when he was 5 months old and 8 months old and those quick fix did not fix the problem. Now that he’s full grown, his eye doc recommended a full face lifting surgery to remove the excess skin as those eyelid surgery did not solve the problem.

The issue is we are in Canada and vets here (according to our current vet) do not have such breeds who need excessive skin removal/lifting surgery and it’s hard to find a vet who would do the surgery.

Can any of you guys in the east coast who can share your vet’s information or your experience of this surgery even?

We are devastated that our baby boy is always sick and have to go through so many surgeries and antibiotics..
