tracheal narrowing I have a 3 year old yorkie who develops stridor when walking and playing. Vet calls it reverse sneezing. Getting progressively worse. Any thoughts? |
Bump in hopes that someone with some experience and knowledge of this problem will respond. ~Joanne~ |
here are videos - which one does it sound most like ? http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/yor...d-trachea.html to stop reverse sneeze cover nostrils and open mouth it will stop immediately |
Until you get a diagnosis, limit exercise and try to restrain exitability or situations that lead to it. Check your pup's mouth for any hair or foreign object that may be causing it. Reverse sneezing normally happens occassionally, and shouldn't 'get worse'. Getting worse may indicate dog is trying to clear something from it's mouth, throat or airway. Collapsed Trachea is managed by meds and limiting exercise/excitement which can cause coughing which in turn aggravates the trachea making coughing worse, and can damage the trachea. Does she do this at all at rest? in the house? |
Thanks. The episodes sound like kennel cough but only occur after exercise or with excitement. |
Yhanks. He is symptom free at rest. The episdes only occur with exercise and with excitement. |
