My Barney has reverse sneezing. If he gets into a long reverse sneezing fit, covering his nostrils sometimes helps. Other times, I have to bring him outside for fresh air. If those two things fail, I run hot water in the bathroom sink and allow him to breath some steam. I usually drop 1-2 drops of peppermint essential oil in the water. It sounds silly but it is my homemade version of a vaporizer but chemical free. We go through this every winter - we live in an old home and have steam heat that blasts when it comes on so we all get chapped, dry, and honk.
