Wabbit, just to put you at ease. Our 4 yr. old Maggie has done it since she was a pup. When she gets excited, here comes the snorting. We use to hold her nose, for a couple of seconds--but now we just pick her up, rub her throat a little--or we give her a treat. When giving the treat, hold onto it, so they will lick and swallow before taking. The whole idea is to get them to swallow and open the trachea again. We now have a playmate for Maggie. She is 4 months old, and her problem is that she has never BARKED yet. Now that is a stumper. She hears just fine, but has nothing to say.
