At Pets R Us Animal Hospital in Aurora, CO, we diagnose and treat laryngeal paralysis, a serious condition that affects a pet’s ability to breathe normally. Most commonly seen in older dogs, especially larger breeds, it occurs when the muscles that open the airway fail to function properly.

Pets with laryngeal paralysis may show signs such as noisy breathing, coughing, exercise intolerance, or even collapse in severe cases. Our team uses advanced diagnostics, including laryngoscopy and imaging, to confirm the condition and assess its severity.

Treatment options vary depending on your pet’s condition. Mild cases may be managed with lifestyle changes and medications, while more advanced cases often require surgery, such as a laryngeal tie-back procedure, to improve airflow and quality of life.

Our compassionate veterinary team in Aurora is here to support you and your pet every step of the way—from diagnosis to recovery. If your pet is showing signs of labored breathing or voice changes, schedule an evaluation with Pets R Us Animal Hospital for expert care and guidance.
