Cinnamon gets these things about once a week and even though I know what they are and that they wont hurt her...they still freak me out. Its hard to believe that they are harmless...she looks likes she is struggling to breath and I feel so helpless. And,it always happens at night, in the middle of the night. Usually I just rub her throat and it stops, but Im not really sure Im helping her or me. When it happens it seems to last an hour or so. Is this common with these little dogs and is there anything I can do to help her or stop them? I have two other little dogs and they never have had anything like this. This Yorkie is by far the most high maintenance dog I have ever had. Its always one thing or another.
