About Tierarztpraxis Quehenberger

Tierarztpraxis Quehenberger at Vöslauer Straße 63 in Baden specialises in short-nosed breeds such as pugs and French and English bulldogs. Under the brand "Dr. Bully", Mag. Christian Quehenberger operates on the upper airways of these dogs using his own method, the Komplexlappentechnik (complex flap technique).

Airways, eyes, skin: what the practice treats

As a result of breeding, short-nosed dogs have typical problems with breathing, skin and spine. The practice also names breeds without short noses that can be similarly affected, such as Chihuahuas, Staffordshire Terriers and Norwich Terriers.

• Komplexlappentechnik: airway surgery in five steps. First an endoscopy, i.e. an examination with a small camera, then a separate planning consultation, pre-anaesthetic tests with blood count, lung X-ray, cardiac ultrasound and ECG, the operation and the aftercare. According to the practice, the dog can go home with you as soon as it wakes up.
• Eyes: operations for entropion and cherry eye (prolapsed third eyelid gland), plus treatment of corneal injuries.
• Surgery: plastic surgery, endoscopic spaying of female dogs using a single-port technique with just one small incision, soft tissue surgery such as removing lumps, dentistry.
• Diagnostics: in-house laboratory for blood, blood clotting, urine and swabs, X-ray, ultrasound, gastroscopy and colonoscopy.
• Internal medicine: allergies and food intolerances, gastrointestinal diseases, thyroid and other hormonal disorders.

Who the practice is for

The focus is on dogs, especially short-nosed breeds. For dentistry the website also mentions cats. It does not list other species. The practice explicitly takes a stand against torture breeding.
