I will say a prayer for your baby!

Marley who is a year old did the reverse sneezing last week. It started in the middle of the night. I thought he was choking. I took him into the emergency vet and she said it was reverse sneezing. It sure doesn't sound like a sneeze. She said it could be caused by allergies. She has also seen raw hide bones from Thailand that have a coating on them that can cause this reaction. I had just bought him a new raw hide bone from Walmart the day before. He did the sneezing for several days and now it has stopped. I know how you feel. I was so scared I was going to lose him. I hope yours is better soon.

I am sorry to hear that this is happening. It is quite confusing when things happen and we cannot understand what exactly it is. I think the vet is a great idea.

Wylie's Mom · 03-02-2009, 05:33 PM

John, it could be reverse sneezing - do you know about RS? If it's going to show up, it often shows up in "adolescence". I will keep your baby in my thoughts and be watching for an update.

Hoping that it's just reverse sneezing and everything checks out OK at the vet.

One night a couple of weeks ago, Harley did this several times throughout the night. I talked to the vet and he said that if it didn't go away in two days to bring him in, and that I could give him some benedryl. Thankfully we only had to go through that horrible sound for one night! I really think it had alot to do with it had been a nice weekend and he got to get out and really play for the first time in a while, so he might have been having a little allergy trouble. I had read about reverse sneezing and the sound, but until you hear it you can't possibly imagine how much your little one can sound like a goose honking. Hopefully if it has only happened a couple of times you don't have anything to worry about.

How's Bently feeling today? Thinking about him and hope all is well. Give him a freat big hug from Coco, Pebbles and Trixie.

John Stelting · 03-03-2009, 07:18 AM

Thanks for all your prayer's for Bently.

So far this week he hasn't did the "goose cough" so I'm hoping it is just reverse sneezing.... I'm still planning on getting an xray done during his 1 year old vet visit just to make sure.

thanks again.

From one worried father to all you worried father's and mothers.

They are just so little and fragile I can't help but worry about what could happen to him, since they can't come right out and tell us they are hurting and where it hurts.

We had a dog that had asthma and it sounds like what you're describing. They put him on prednisone during his bad episodes. He lived a long life!! Hopefully it's nothing... My prayers and thoughts are with you and Bentley

ARCHIE · 03-03-2009, 07:43 AM

Prayer's coming for Bently that's it's only RS.
Buddy does it when he get's overly excited. It scares the
death out of me. I never had the vet check it because it
only happens once in a while and I know other's have experienced
it as well. I have found that as he got older, he's 5now, it
started to happen. I stroke his throat and talk to him gently
and in a minute or two it goes away. It must be terrifying to them.
I also hold my breath for fear he won't get's his back.

speleogirl37 · 03-03-2009, 07:43 AM

Thanks for the update!! Glad he is doing well

Kaytlynsmom · 03-03-2009, 07:56 AM

Glad Bently is feeling better.... reverse sneezing huh? Hmmmmm one more thing to research

Just can't say it enough. What a wonderful fountain of information this site is! Wonderful wonderful wonderful!

John Stelting · 03-07-2009, 11:37 AM

I took my little man in to the vet for a blood workup and xray of his trachea. Trachea looks ok, liver on xray looks great. One of the blood test, not sure which one was at 28 and normal is up to 25 so they will be doing a fasting blood and urine test next Friday.

But all in all he's ok..

Thanks for all your prayers.

Hi John,
I'm glad to hear that Bentley is doing better. My girl Calleigh had that during the summer months a couple of times. My vet told me it was some type of spasm in her diaphram. She hasn't had the problem all winter. It seemed to be when she got excited. It did sound like she was choking. I picked her up and patted her back. She stopped on her own. It was very frightening. I'm glad you're seeing the vet about it. I thought of collapsed trachea also. I'm glad to hear it's not that. Prayers are still coming your way.
