1994655 tn?1327085029 Hello & welcome.....Google "Reverse Sneeze" and see if that's what your dealing with......It is common in Toy Breeds & harmless....... You don't say how old Leo is; if he's a senior and this cough is due to excitement, then you need to have him screened for CHF (Congestive Heart Failure)...This is also common and the sooner it's caught, the easier it is to control.....Just like humans, Dogs can live many years on medications for heart disease....
Avatar n tn Good morning...it sounds like your little cocker has a great life with you! Ask you veterinarian if this could possibly be a "reverse sneeze". The signs you describe don't fit the description of a reverse sneeze perfectly, but it is possible that is what he is doing. Some owners describe the reverse sneeze as a "goose honking" kind of cough. Glad to hear that he is living a good life with you.
Avatar f tn Karla gave you excellent information. Probably to get a Vet exam.Sounds very much like Reverse sneeze, which is very common in small breeds. However, that is just a guess Hope all is well.

Avatar n tn Ok, reminds me of a funny story. I had Shelties for years. My friend had an older Sheltie that had the reverse sneezing problem. This is NOT a recommendation but my friend used to call the dog to the bathroom and put a little Vick's on the dog's nose. It got to the point that every time the dog would start the reverse sneeze she would walk over to the bathroom and wait fir my friend put Vick's on her nose. Just cracked me up.
Avatar m tn and both my dogs seems to have a hard time caughting there breath, this is on occasion. i was told by the pet store that this is an reverse sneeze. is this true.
Avatar f tn I am so sorry I couldn't locate the video on google drive. It just didn't work, and came up with a 'page not found.' I am wondering....could this be what is known as a 'reverse sneeze'? I think there are short videos on you tube of examples of reverse sneezes in dogs. Some dogs do it differently to others, but you might get the general idea. If it IS that, it is harmless and very common.
1632896 tn?1299942340 Sneezing is cats is for the same reasons as it is in humans. Irritation, blockage, allergic reaction, or sinus infection. If there are no other symptoms (eye or nose draining, wheezing, difficulty breathing), it is most likely due to some temporary irritation or blockage such as inhaling a bit of food or litter dust, or even from playing with a feathery or furry toy.
Avatar f tn I should mention that her teeth are past needing cleaning but we have not done it because of her other problems and fear she would not wake up. I also should mention that she does not sneeze in front of the vet so he has never seen this behavior. Gia now is not eating regularly for weeks and I don't know what to do. Help!

Avatar f tn It sounds like it might be what is called a 'reverse sneeze'. They are not uncommon and generally harmless. It's hard to explain - the dog acts like it is trying to suck in air loudly and its chest will heave. It happens usually in a cluster and then will end. A shelter worker years ago told me that sometimes helping the dog to stand with its front legs wider than usual can help.
Avatar f tn It is spread through the air when people who have an active MTB infection cough, sneeze, or otherwise transmit their saliva through the air.[2] Most infections in humans result in an asymptomatic, latent infection, and about one in ten latent infections eventually progresses to active disease, which, if left untreated, kills more than 50% of its victims.
404138 tn?1308941656 First, you need a firm diagnosis that it is allergies causing the reaction. I'm wondering if what you're seeing is a "reverse sneeze" rather than sneezing and wheezing? If the emphasis of air movement is more inward than outward, that's a "reverse sneeze" and it can be very frightening to witness but is basically harmless. Think of it as kind of a hiccup. If you rub the dog's throat and get him moving again, it will usually stop in a few seconds.
Avatar f tn after she recovered she started pulling her neck up and gagging which after some research I thought it was a reverse sneeze or a collapsed treacia the vet gave her a low dosage steroid she has been on this for about a week and there is no change .. the neck pulling and this gagging continues when she finally gets comfortable she starts to yelp .. we are at a loss for what is going on ..
Avatar f tn if it is i may be a reverse sneeze... dogs get this and it is normal, unless it reaches a point where it is constant and distressing... but if it is random and intermitent it should be ok... just monitar for other signs of health problems... more difficulty breathing distress, changes in activity level or severity of episodes.. as well as food and water intake.. but when in doubt see a vet hope this helps.
1397479 tn?1280469188 Hello & welcome......If your dog is a Toy breed, the snorting sound (When excited) is called a "Reverse Sneeze". Google it and read to see if that's what your hearing....Very common and nothing to worry about......Actually, I don't believe anyone knows what causes it! The choking from lease pulling is too much pressure on the Trachea....It causes restriction of air in the lungs......
3181540 tn?1344550924 Reasons for Coughing: OK, For starters, you need to rule out Heart Problems....The xray will not only show the heart, but also the lungs...This is important....
