I agree, this is a great thread, very interesting. Wish someone had a video of the reverse sneezing, I've never heard it before. When Spencer was diagnosed with CT, many years ago, the vet had heard him actually doing it, he was pretty overweight, about 13 pounds, and the vet said it could improve if he loss some weight. Well we got him down to about 10 pounds, and it didn't happen as often, but it was definitely still there. But years later when he started having the lung, and heart problems, you could really see the collapsed trachea on his chest x-rays, poor little guy was really struggling to breath and he "honked" like that a lot more often. He was just 11 years old when he passed away, quietly in his sleep, after a rather bad night. So maybe it depends on how severe it is, as to whether or not it will show up on an x-ray, but I know it was there, I saw the films myself. Any more thoughts, comments or videos would be very helpful!!!
