• “Screw tail” in a Bull dog

A 3-year-old Bulldog presented to us in West Midlands Veterinary Referrals for attention to her breed-related “screw tail”.  The deep skin folds associated with the cork-screw tail led to festering skin infections.

Once the tail vertebrae had been removed, the skin was reconstructed. Once the wound has healed, the cosmetic result will be excellent, and smelly infection should be a thing of the past!
