| choking or gagging Are you using a harness or a collar. My boy had those same symptoms after the trainer suggested we use a correction collar instead of his harness. As soon as I realized the culprit, I changed back to the harness.

| Surgery and x-rays My four month old was doing the same thing and I thought it was a collapsed trachea, so the vet x-rayed. Sure enough he swallowed something. So they operated and found pieces of a pacifier that were to big to pass. He still gasps for air though. That was 2 weeks ago. |

Donating YT 30K Club Member | Have you checked to make sure there is no hair going down her throat. Mine get that occassionaly and I gently pull the hair from their throats. The hair is the hair that is attached to their beard so they have no way of getting it out once it gets down their. Hope it is something minor.
