This is EXACTLY what Yogi does, but his is a series of 5-6 in row, one right after the other...Our vet said the sound of a CT and reverse sneezing sound very similiar and the only way to differentiate the two is by x-ray or looking into their trachea with a scope. Our tests were negative on Yogi, he only does it if he's excited or allergy season. He actually wretches with his back legs spread out and its quite sad. He can go for a long period of time without doing it. I can also distract him by saying,"wheres the turtle" he immediately stops and goes and looks for the turtle. Vet also said, thats not a ct if he can just stop...so the real test is letting the vet listen when it happens or having the medical tests to rule out a ct. Yogi had Kennel cough 3 days after we got him and it took a good 3 weeks for him to get over it, so he's got some scar tissue in his trachea supposedly from the extreme coughing...your little guy sounds just like ours here..Benadryl has helped us too. Good luck, little Ralphie is a doll! |
