| Hello everyone....Newbie here !!! Hi, We recently picked our first yorkie ....He`s a little over 4 months and very cute (my wife says adorable is more likely)........His name is Toby ....He looks very healthy, active and eats a lot.....(Try to post some pics... ) The only thing that concerns us is that sometimes he makes a strange sound (like a stuff nose), we took him to the vet and told us that he is 100% healthy and that is very common with small breeds like yorkies to have respiratory problems.....Could he be sick? cold maybe? Hope it`s not collapse trachea..... It doesn`t happen all the time, usually when is asleep and a couple of times during the day...... Any suggestions\tips are welcome.... Thank you... PS..Congratulations....very nice forum..... |

| I think what you are talking about is a reverse sneeze. Mine do this sometimes. Especially if I have used air freshener or carpet cleaner. It could be kennel cough also, I would take him to the vet to be sure.

| Oh I am sorry now I see you did take him to vet. Watch what you are using around him.It will improve I am sure.

| congrats..Please have him checked again if he continues.. I had a pug that did this for years and I was told also it was a reverse sneeze.. He did this his whole 14 years of life and ended up dying of collapsed trachea..He was too old for the surgery. Sending positive thoughts your way.. |
