Bailey Chairs for Dogs with Megaesophagus +Giveaway

Bailey Chairs for Dogs with Megaesophagus

Bailey Chairs

A Bailey chair is a specially designed chair that allows dogs suffering from Megaesophagus to sit upright when they eat and drink. This places the dog in a position to allow gravity to do the work of the esophagus. Dogs sit in this chair during their meal and for about a half hour afterward in order to help the food go down.

Megaesophagus is difficult to detect and diagnose, and the medical options are few. However with the help of a Bailey Chair dogs can lead relatively normal lives. The condition is reported in humans, dogs, cats, ferrets and other animals. The muscles of the esophagus fail and it cannot propel food or water into the stomach. The result is that ingested food sits in the esophagus within the chest cavity and never makes it to the stomach. The most serious complication is that digestive fluid/food will at some point pool in the esophagus which generally results in aspiration of digestive fluid/food, leading to pneumonia. Megaesophagus can occur at any age from puppy through senior dog.

Symptoms:

Regurgitation of water, mucous or food. (Regurgitation is throwing up without any warning)
Loss of appetite or refusal to eat.
Sudden weight loss.
Swallowing difficulty, exaggerated and/or frequent swallowing.
They will also try to clear their throat frequently with a “hacking” sound.
Foul smelling breath.

Bailey Chairs for Dogs with Megaesophagus

Many dogs are helped by being placed in a sitting up position where their back legs are on the ground but their front legs are resting on something so hat it helps keep their back in a vertical position. That is where Bailey Chairs come in they keep the dog in a upright position with support so that they do not over stress their body while processing their meals. A dog sitting in one of these chairs looks like they are in a baby’s high chair. Bailey Chairs are built out of the creator’s garage in their spare time husbands spare time. They build them at cost for those who can afford them and try to raise money to give them away free for those who cannot. Their ultimate goal is to be able to give them away free to every dog that suffers from this condition and can be helped with the chair.

For Tails Only Bulk Treats

During the entire month of February For Tails Only will be donating $2 from the sale of every lb of Bulk Dog Treats sold to help more dogs receive Bailey Chairs that need them. For each chair the company is able to donate Bailey Chairs will be able to give 2 dogs these life saving chairs. That is really huge. If each one of you reading this post ordered just 1 lb of dog treats for your dog, the neighbors dog, or the dogs at your local shelter can you image how many chairs the fans of Two Little Cavaliers could help make happen all on our own? All you need to do is visit For Tails Only and mention my handler number IH #311 so that I can keep track of all the orders and at the end can report back and let you know how many lbs of treats were sold.

The Bulk Dog Treats that are a part of this fundraiser are the ones that appear on the site with a picture of the cookie and a glass bowl. These are Fort Tail Only Dog Treats and come in a variety of flavors to choose from. Last night Davinia and Indiana tried the Honey Bear ones and they loved them. We also have a lb of the Carob Crunch and the Bow Wow Ties. Unfortunately we have been snowed in and have not gotten any mail in a few days so missed out on getting all of our goodies before posting. If the Honey Bears were any indication all of the flavors are going to be a big hit in this house. Since we think that this is such a great cause and we want to help these dogs lead a live as normal as possible I decided to self sponsor a Giveaway to help get the word out about these yummy dog treats and about this fantastic cause. For now they can only ship to the US so this Giveaway will only be open to the US.

    My youngest dog loves to spin in circles. We have filmed it because he is sooo funny. He isn’t chasing his tail…just spinning and making himself dizzy and then he watches the walls while he is still dizzy. Funny guy!

  3. I would like to get my dogs the Terräbone Edible Dental Chew Bone – Regular.

  11. My dog jake could use the grip mat for his food bowl. He tends to go crazy when he eats and pushes his bowl around. This would be perfect to keep it in place.

  12. My dog definitely doesn’t NEED anything else (he is SO spoiled!!) but, it might be nice to have some BUBBA ROSE® CRACK! BAR – PUMPKIN SPICE treats to train him some new tricks 🙂

  13. My dog’s favorite activity is definitely playing with his dog-friends at the dog park every afternoon. I suppose that and watching for squirrels 🙂

  14. Theresa Spaid says

  31. Danielle Murgia says

    Sissy loves to play fetch and goes for walks.

  32. The bacon and egg piglets are adorable (and Sophie would love them), but she really needs a new ID tag and the “spoiled” one would be totally appropriate.

  33. Sophie loves to make sure that the cat doesn’t overstep his bounds!

  34. Brutus Duffy says

    Brutus just had his teeth cleaned and would like some Terrabones to chew on to KEEP his teeth clean. Thanks.

  70. I would probably choose pupper nutters. Or the assorted mix, I have eight dogs, three of which are rescues and they absolutely love trying new treats and I would absolutely love to win for my gang. Love that these treats are helping such a great cause. I’ve never even heard of this particular medical condition until recently but it’s nice that a solution has been made to help these dogs….I have a sheltie, that though has nothing wrong with her, would enjoy sitting in this chair to eat….silly girl….

    Self-Warming Lounger Sleeper, because my dog still doesn’t have a bed, he just lays on rugs and he tries to sleep on the cat’s bed (which is just an old pillow with a blanket on top) and any of the treats would be awesome, because after his teeth are brushed, he demands a treat.
