as for trachea (sp?)....see when he does it...if it's just randomly when he's calm, he probably just had to clear his throat...if it's when he gets really excited and starts having a hard time breathing, it's probably trachea problems. My friends dog had to get surgery for that.
Thanks for your input.
It never (that I can recall) happens after jogging or playing fetch but at weird times like before bed or in the middle of the night I wake up to him doing it for 20 seconds or so
