SSSHHHH… 🤫

We’ve been keeping a little secret brewing behind the scenes… 🌙✨

A dream we’ve been quietly nurturing.
A surprise we’ve been patiently waiting to share.
And now, the moment is almost here…

Our KUQEZI Tribe will be the very first to know. 🐾💫

For weeks we’ve been holding onto a little piece of magic, and we’re so excited to finally let you in on it.

Any guesses? 👀

🌙 The reveal is happening later today.
✨ Stay close.
🤍 The wait is almost over.

Very interesting research for French Bulldogs and other flat-faced breeds. 🐾
It’s great to see new options being explored to help improve breathing and quality of life. Looking forward to seeing the results of the next trial. ❤️

This is the first publication for SnoreTox, resulting from the clinical trials performed by Maurice and me alongside the RMIT team who developed the product.

Hopefully the results of the second clinical trial investigating French Bulldogs and Pugs will also be published soon.

SnoreTox is an exciting new development for flat-faced dogs and may provide another tool to help dogs with breathing issues. It’s particularly interesting for dogs that haven't had a good response to surgery, or for owners wanting to explore a non-surgical approach. Ultimately, the best management is likely to involve a combination of approaches.

The results we’ve seen with SnoreTox suggest an improvement in breathing similar to surgery. Unlike surgery, however, SnoreTox doesn’t provide a permanent change and may need to be repeated approximately every six months.

Prior to clinical trials, proof of principle, efficacy, safety and dosing studies were performed to help ensure the treatment approach was safe for the dogs.

A new trial is currently being planned and we will keep you posted.

SnoreTox is still undergoing research and is not currently available as a routine clinical treatment.

One thing people don’t always realise after desexing is that dogs usually need a bit less food than before 🐾

Their appetite can increase while their metabolism slows down, so keeping the same portions can sometimes lead to unwanted weight gain over time.

Keeping dogs at a healthy weight helps take pressure off their joints, spine, breathing and overall health 🤍

Just a few small changes with food and exercise can make a big difference long term.

we generally recommend desexing around 12 months of age where possible, as this allows more time for growth plates and overall development before surgery 🐾
Every dog is different of course, and there can be medical or lifestyle reasons to desex earlier, but in many cases allowing them to mature first can be beneficial for long-term structure and development 🤍

Getting in a little late for the evening BUT Happy Mother’s Day to all the mums with fur-covered clothes, treat-filled pockets, and hearts devoted to paws and tails 🤍

To the ones who wake up through the night for newborn litters, celebrate every milestone, wipe muddy paws, share their beds, and love unconditionally… today is for you too.

Being a dog mum is a special kind of love — loyal, patient, messy, beautiful, and full of tiny paw prints that leave the biggest marks on our hearts.

From all of us at KUQEZI Haus, Happy Mother’s Day to every fur mum out there 🐾✨

❤️

Something we’re really passionate about at KUQEZI HAUS is allowing dogs time to fully grow and mature before early spay or neuter 🤍
We’ve had quite a few conversations with our puppy families recently around desexing and timing, which is why we also include information about it in our puppy packs.

This isn’t about being against desexing, it’s about timing and allowing dogs time to fully grow and mature first.

Hormones do far more than people realise. They help with growth plate closure, bone and joint development, muscle tone, structure and overall maturity.

We created this educational flyer (thank you AI.) to help explain why our program recommends waiting until at least 12 months of age unless medically necessary. Especially in breeds already prone to orthopedic issues, development matters.

We always encourage families to work closely with their vet, ask questions, and make informed decisions for their individual dog 🤍
