Reverse sneezing? Or Something Worse I am uncertain as to what I am hearing Suzi do, and need you guys to help me. This has happend several times over the last couple of months. Out of the blue I hear what it sounds like snorting sounds. She is loud too. Early this morning it happened again, and she woke me up. I was scared for her. She recovered quickly though. Can somebody tell me wht reversve sneezing sounds like? I was not certain if she was choking or what? Constricted airway? |
its hard to describe the sound without actually performing the sound for you. can you possibly get a video of Suzi making the noise? a reverse sneeze is harmless and usually only lasts a few seconds. if its upsetting to you or the dog, or it is lasting a little longer you can try putting your finger over her nose to make her breath out of her mouth. or you can try giving her a treat, the chewing motion usually stops the noise. |
Momo makes those sounds quite often. He snorts, & it sounds like he's gagging at the same time...it scares me too! My vet said it's allergies (I took a video in) & sometimes I notice he does it too when his long face hair is in his mouth...itching his throat. This guy is a Yorkie roomba...my hair comes out of his poop! I also notice that his toy ball would get dust & hair on it cuz he slobbers all over it...& he loves squeeking his toy balls! He would make those sounds afterwards. Kellie has a good suggestion, I cover Momo's nose w/my fingers & he stops. I've got to try the treats...I also heard that some dogs will purposely make those noises to get attention...smart wittle stinkers. |
Here is a video on YouTube of a Maltese reverse sneezing. Hope this helps you out. |
Yes, the video helped so much. Sparkey made me cry though.... This is exactly what my Suzi sounds like... KInd of reminds me of a piggy snorting .Even hearing Sparky made me feel badly though. At least now i know it is harmless to the toy breeds and common. Thank you for taking the time to put it on here . Cathy |
Whoa! Thanks for the video! My girl has had a few of those episodes and by the time its over I am a pure nervous wreck! You have NO idea how much this video has put my mind and heart at ease... always knew in my heart what it was but sounds so scary! Thank you endlessly! :animal-pa xoxo :animal-pa ~ Mikaela |
Yep! Oliver does the same thing! I hate how it sounds....thanks for the video.;) |
i was worried when my chihuahua did it.its fine i think alot of breeds do it |
Hi, are you worried about your baby having a collapsed trachea? My one baby girl was making a noise and I couldn't figure out if she had a CT or if she was doing the reverse sneezing. We had an x-ray done and thank goodness she does not have a CT. If your still concerned maybe you could have one done too. I hope everything's alright with your baby. :) |
Oh, wow.. I think this is what my mom's dog does sometimes. She will make that awful sound and we never knew what it was... it lasts about as long as Sparkey's, maybe a tiny bit longer... and sounds awful. |
My Yorkie makes a sound that is quieter than the noise the maltese made in the video above. It's like a cough/sneeze/hiccup/choke sound that lasts only a few seconds. Do collapsed trachea and reverse sneezing have different sounds? |
I'm wondering the same thing. Sullie has been making this noise and I'm not sure what it is. |
