Cleft Palate Recently a breeder friend of mind did have a Yorkie Puppy born with a full Cleft. I am posting a picture for your information and education. This puppy had to be euthanized as there was no direct connection to his stomach without putting in a stomach tube and his prognosis was at best guarded.
Most this affects more flat nosed breeds. Cause is unknown. Although there are many speculations. |
