Q: With Brachycephalic airway syndrome, the bony chamber of the nose is physically smaller but the soft palate that separates the back of the nose from the throat remains the same size. This is like having a curtain that's too long for a window in place. As the dog breathes in, the pressure change tends to suck the soft palate against the entrance to the trachea (windpipe), blocking it off. This causes the French bulldog to choke and gasp for breath. Laryngeal saccules also affect breathing. These are tonsil like tissue located just inside the larynx (voice box). Changes in air pressure created by the anatomical changes have the effect of sucking the laryngeal saccules in the way of the trachea, and block it. Also, a hypoplastic trachea impacts breathing. The windpipe of French bulldogs can be much narrower than a normal windpipe. This produces increased resistance to airflow and yet more breathing problems. They will be able to diagnose breathing problems and help you to decide if you're open to the idea of surgery. Assess how bad your dog's breathing is and whether you are willing to change it surgically. Some dogs struggle so hard to breath that corrective surgery is required to improve their quality of life. It's important to discuss whether or not your dog should get surgery with your dog's veterinarian. Unfortunately, some problems, such as the hypoplastic trachea and a large tongue, cannot be changed with surgery. Under general anesthesia, the vet cuts out a triangle of flesh from the outside border of the nostrils. This will create a larger gap for air to pass through. The effect of widening the nostrils makes it easier for the dog to breath through its nose. Under anesthesia, the surgeon assesses how much extra tissue there is at the back of the throat. He or she then trims the soft palate back. The aim is to resect (remove) enough so that there is no tissue flapping in the turbulence of the opening to the windpipe. The vet may opt to resect the laryngeal saccules. This surgery removes two obstructions from the crowded space at the back of the throat, allowing more space for air to pass.
A: Learn about your dog's breathing. Talk to your vet. Consider nostril surgery. Discuss the option of soft palate resection. Consider resection of the laryngeal saccules.

Q: Use a clean paper towel to blot up as much of the liquid as you can. Do not rub, or press too hard. Just blot gently. Dip another piece of clean paper towel in hydrogen peroxide, and wring it out so that it is damp but not dripping wet. Place the towel over the stain, and use a heavy object to apply pressure, pressing the peroxide into the leather. Let the hydrogen peroxide do its work for half an hour. Remove it, and see how it looks. If the stain is still there, wet a new paper towel with hydrogen peroxide, and repeat the process for another half hour. Keep in mind that the moisture from the paper towel will temporarily leave a wet mark on the leather. Be sure not to confuse this with the stain itself. Use a soft cloth to rub a small amount of leather conditioner into the affected area. This will help restore the leather's texture. Let it dry again.
A:
Absorb as much of the wine as you can. Apply hydrogen peroxide. Wait and see. Condition the leather.
