[Bart's Mom]

Hi. We've just added an adorable Yorkie (our first!) to our household (we have two other dogs - a Lhasa and a Shih Tzu.) Bart, our baby Yorkie (12 weeks old), joined the family about 8 days ago. On the 6th day, he started sneezing - quite a lot. I took him to the vet yesterday, and she told me it was likely a collapsed trachea, typical of small breeds, and that there was nothing to be done. However, from everything that I've read, a collapsed trachea is more of a honking cough from the mouth - right? Bart is sneezing from his nose - with a little sneeze spray - and his mouth is closed when he does it. And, his nose is often moist after the sneeze - sometimes a little runny. It doesn't seem to be a "reverse sneeze" either - again, because his mouth is closed. He often sneezes while running around - but he has also sneezed while laying calmly in my arms. I'm stumped. He's had the kennel cough preventative vaccination, as well as the shot for distemper. He's still playful and has an appetite, but he sneezes constantly. Has anyone else had a similar situation with their Yorkie? Thanks.
