It almost is like they can't catch their breath and sounds like a goose. Google it and check out a video so when your little one sneezes for the first time you won't be totally freaked out. I watched a video and was so grateful that I did! My hubby did not watch the video and I think he was ready to throw Jack in the car and run him to the vet's office. LOL Congratulations on your little one and good luck!
Both my yorkies sneeze like every other dog, but what you are describing is reverse sneezing and is different. It is freaky to hear it for the first time, but mine rarely do it.
