Boston Terrier Health Problem – Hemivertbrae

Thank you for revisiting Boston Terrier Center again! I really appreciate it =) Please subscribe to my Boston Terrier Training Tips now if you haven't done so!

I’ve read on further on the boston terrier health problems and here’s what I’ve came up with from reading at this website at: http://www.bostonterrierhub.com/boston_terrier_health_problems.html

Hemivertebrae:

Genetic in nature, the incidence of hemivertebrae is highest in brachycephalic (short muzzled), screw-tailed dog breeds. The screw-tail is actually an example of a hemivertebrae formation. This condition may be pleasing when located in the tail but can have serious consequences when located elsewhere in the spine.
