Choking in her sleep Millie is 8 months old. I would say about 6-10 times now she has woken us in the middle of the night with what seems like a choking fit, or that she cant get a breath of air. She has her own bed and sometimes sleeps in ours, and it happens in both places, and only when she is sleeping. It only lasts about 10-15 seconds, and I reassure her and then she goes straight to sleep. I always use the harness when I am walking her, so dont think she would have damaged her trachea. Anyone else encountered this, and should I contact the Vet about it? |
Yorkies are prone to collapsed trachea and can get it even if youve never used a collar. She needs to be checked by a vet |
Is the air in your bedroom real dry? During the Winter I have to run a humidifier - both me and my littlest one have problems breathing in dry air:( |
It even happens when she is asleep in the evening in the sitting room. |
My dog does the same thing, scared me so much the first time it happened. We just got a humidifier, so hopefully that will help. how did everything end up working out with this? We live in a condo and it gets quite dry in the winter. I think it is still pretty much reverse sneezing, but my little guy rarely does this during the day. |
