Sounds like a reverse sneeze. My little ones get these ALLLLL the time. They are normal, but REALLLLLY SCARY!! I thought mine were dying. Its just allergies!
You should call the vet and ask them to describe one to you, it sounds just like what you are saying. There is really nothing you can do about them, they will stop doing them eventually. Post nasal drip is what causes it. She prob just has allergies
