Pneumothorax

[Benchster]

Has anybody experienced this with their dog? Our four year old Labradors operated on initially for bloat yesterday but is also having problems with pneumothorax and is still being monitored at the vets.

Sorry to hear that your dog has had bloat and now pneumothorax. I have worked on and off in vets for many years but have not heard of it. Bloat yes but not pneumothorax. I do hope they manage to sort him out. It must be very worrying for you.

He's recovering nicely thank you gypsysmum2. Home but being closely monitored daily by the vet.

Phew!
