Scary Breathing Episode :( Has anyone had their yorkie gasp for air after playing hard. He just scared me, when he kept on gasping for air for almost 5 minutes ! Is this normal with this breed ? :confused: |
Sounds like maybe reverse sneeze? Next time he does it, cover his nostrils with your fingertips. |
Maybe overheated... I would call the vet and ask. Maybe settle him down. Give him some water and keep cool. Good luck |
Normally when they play hard, the will pant. Tongue out and panting. Is he actually opening his mouth and gasping to get air IN? I have never seen this before. Is it possible he is reverse sneezing? Do you know what that sounds like? |

Yes it was the reverse sneeze. Thanks for sending me that ! That was scary he was doing that for like 5 minutes. Is this normal ? Is there anything I can do to help him. He just looked uncomfortable ..... |
You can pinch his nostrils. Or, just massage the front of his neck. Here is a link about it: http://www.veterinarypartner.com/Content.plx?P=A&A=2335 It really is harmless. |
Thank you so much.. It scared me when he wouldn't stop doing that ! |
