| Dr. gives ok on Harley Ok, We've had Harley since last Thursday. Since then he's been making hacking or what sounds like you guys are saying "reverse sneezing" occasionally. Two days ago (Thurs.) I took him to the vet and he was given the ok! Vet said his lungs were good and said if anything it could be allergies to a cleaner I have or something. But he's also doing it at my mom's too. He's making this noise at anytime - playing, laying down, and sleeping. He seems to have done it more today than ever. He goes in on the 8th for his shots. Should I just watch him and wait until then to bring him in? |

| Get a second opinion ASAP!!! Also, contact your breeder if you got your furbaby from one and ask about it. My yorkie mix had mild kennel cough when we rescued her and something that really helped was keeping her in the bathroom when anyone showered to "steam" her and open her lungs and loosen mucous. We also gave her some vitamin C and within a few weeks the cough/sneezing had stopped. Thats a home remedy to try...

Donating YT 30K Club Member | Definately get a second opinion like Cupofdog said. When I got Cali she had kennelcough and gave it to my 8 yera old pom. Three rounds of antibiotics and 3 months before it completley went away. Steaming definately helped too. Hope Harley feels better soon
