remy,
I am surely not an expert, and am not familiar with wobblers disease, so while I can't truly answer your question, I did just Google "wobblers disease" and from what I read; it is a disease of large breeds. It specifically mentions Great Danes/Dobermans as prime candidates for it. There are other large breeds mentioned, but nothing about Frenchies. I hope this helps some, but maybe someone with more Frenchie experience will give you a better answer.

God Bless......Stan

Re: Wobblers Disease

I am in the same boat as DogueEdaddy in that I do not know anything about Wobbler's, but this site lists all large breeds and many other sites said it was only found in large breeds. Best bet would be to take him to the vet and make sure it's not this syndrome or any other medical issue....what are the symptoms anyway?


Here's the site...
