Sometime I think a lot of this sneezing and coughing is due to allergies which we a lot of in Texas. Try a room air purifier in the bedroom It seem to help at this time of year with pollen is heavy. I purchased one for a good price at about $159. This helps the adults too. He still has a volent head shake which could be allergies too, but not sure there. It is always something, but we worry a lot with them.

You got that right. Texas also huh? Its in the wee hours and I got up and heard her as I got up but prior to going to bed, nothing. Just wierd when she has her coughing spells. I know my sinus headache is pretty bad right now also. Im hoping since she is a puppy, something she may grow out of. I am keeping a close eye on her though just in case. Thanks, yeah we are always cleaning dust here also.
