My dog woke up coughing around 7 am (eastern time) & it scared me so much the last time she coughed was around 8 & the she laid down while making a huffing sound. It scared me so much because shes never done it before & I literally freaked out & called my mom crying because I thought she couldnt breathe. We wouldnt be able to pay a vet bill until monday but I showed the veterinarian a video & she said it seemed like it couldve been something she ate & i think thats why because she is a curious little one & loves exploring the house & getting into things or that it could be something like allergies or some type of irritant.
She told us to watch her & bring her back in if it worsens or other symptoms develop.
In the video I rubbed her throat & that made her cough & now when I rub her throat nothing happens
I did fear at times that she could have a collapsing trachea because of a noise she makes when shes excited or something but its reverse sneezing because she doesnt have the collapsed trachea symptoms & sneezes & reverse sneezes at the same time & has been doing it for as long as I can remember & it hasnt gotten worse
Right now shes running around our room playing with her toys, eating, & barking because she hears other dogs barking outside
