Default Back from Doc

Simon update!

The doc seems positive it is reverse sneezing, although she was able to get him to produce a small cough when applying pressure to his gobble lol. She said he might have a bit of an elongated pallate (top of his mouth) that may trigger it too.

She said it may be the start of a collasping trachea, and prescribed some anithistamines that seem to be helping. In the meantime I'm just going to watch him very closely and make sure his little throat is monitored. For all the worry he put me through last week, I thought I'd reward his good behavior at the vets (even if he was gassy and embarrassed his mom!) by taking him by my office afterwards - and that little brat didn't "honk" not once even with all the darting about from desk to desk for belly rubs!

Lol... I don't think he ever saw a glass door before, because his little legs got to running full speed and found out what glass is very fast. Thonk!

Anyhow, thanks again for all the wonderful replies.

Ps - I don't remember why I first started calling him Pickle, he's only a six pounder, really little guy so Pickle suits him.
