English: 1. Nasal Cavity

This diagram illustrates what the airway structure looks like in a brachycephalic dog; in this case, a Boxer. The brachycephalic dogs has a shorter snout which causes the airway to be shorter, that means all the parts that make up the airway get pushed closer together. Due to this phenomenon, a brachycephalic dog has an elongated soft palate which can cause most of the problems with the dogs breathing. They can also have problems getting enough air in because of their elongated soft palate and shorter airway.
