| Please say a prayer for my Bently Bently, who is almost 1, started making "goose sounds" this weekend and I'm afraid he has a collapsed trachea. He only did it twice all weekend. Once when he was running down a hallway to play with our cat, the other time just before I fed him. Please say a prayer for him that he will be ok and I won't be losing him... I don't know what I'd do if something happened to him. He is my baby and I love him more than life itself. If it is a collapsed trachea and is diagnosed early enough what can be do to help him? He has an appt at his vet next Sat. for his 1 year checkup. Thanks John |

| Oh my! Great big hugs and prayers being sent your way! I hope little Bently is ok and the vet gives you the two thumbs up. |

| Sometimes they do a "reverse sneezing" sound. Maybe that's all it is...but it's always a good idea for a vet to check. Try not to worry

| The reverse sneezing was my first thought too. Praying that is what it is. Please let us know what the vet says after his appointment next week.

| Sorry to hear about Bentley. There's nothing worst then the feeling of helplessness when your little guy is sick. My heart is with you both. If he starts doing it more, I think I would call the vet and see if they can move his appointment up. You're both in our prayers.

| Ziggy did that last summer 5 days after a trip to the groomers. Turned out he had kennel cough, probably from exposure to a sick dog there. He recovered very quickly.

Reverse sneezing does not always mean collapsed trachea. I have posted a couple of sites about CT and one member said her dog lived a long, happy life with it. I hope you have only good news at the vet. Please keep us posted.

Donating YT 30K Club Member | Hopefully it is just a little cough or reverse sneeze. One is young for CT so hopefully it's not that. I have had 2 yorkies with mild CT and both lived full lives and passed on at ages 12 and almost 12 from unrelated causes. Please keep us posted.

| This definitely sounds like reverse sneezing...... Seymour and Shelby do this when they get overly excited, too. It is wise to check it out with your vet (like we did). Let us know what you find out! & Good Luck!

| Maggie gets this alot when she gets overly excited. I was really concerned at first and started watching her. She really only does when they rough house and when we come home after being away for a few hours. Better safe than sorry, always good to ask the vet. Sending good thoughts that all is okay.

| ........... I forgot to add, when Shelby or Seymour start to "reverse sneeze" I hold them and try to calm them. Quietly petting and talking to them. It works well. Matter of fact, now when it happens they actually come to me to be held.
