Reverse sneezing can happen to a Boston Terrier at any age. If a dog becomes overexcited, has an environmental allergic reaction, or gulps his food down quickly, he may have a fit of reverse sneezing. During this event, nasal secretions fall onto the soft palate, causing a closing of the windpipe. This closure results in a wheezing sound. The windpipe will reopen quickly, especially if the dog remains calm during the attack.

tysm i thought my dog was dying 😭
Same😭😭
My pit/lab mix does it all the time and I found that holding him somewhat still and rubbing under his neck works wonders (not scratching, rubbing)
Same😢
Me too!
samee 😭
Just happened to my dog now, and this came up when trying to research what the hell I witnessed. This video made me feel much better. THANK YOU
You are welcome!
my dog scared the SHITT out off mee🙄😩
I literally just did the same thing... My dog does this sometimes but has been doing it on and off today and is still in an episode right now so I decided to google it and found this!!!!
Thought my dog was dying last night rammed my fingers down it’s throat and everything on my knees holding her in the road going breath damn u breath! Just a normal response to a normal situation it seems.
Omg same!! Our dog woke us all up from this just a few mins ago 😫 so scaryyy
🥺🥺 i cried after seeing my dog doing like this. I thought he was having serious problem. But now i'm relaxed. Thankyou 😭❤️
THANK GOD FOR THIS. I was hysterical on the way to the doggy hospital at 3am when I watched this. I had to pull over and calm myself down even after realizing this is what it was. Thank you so much man you have no idea how much this helped me
Imagine the first time you witnessing this from your Boston being after her being diagnosed with epilepsy, initially from noticing her have a seizure... We freaked out since it was the first seizure we observed but our other dog made no reaction whatsoever so we believe it was unlikely the first...
@@jaspermaster7676 same, my dog just recovered from her elevated blood that cause her seizure and weak bone, so i freaked out the hell of me when i see her and the situation glad it's nothing serious 😩
Lmaooo
This happened to my Beagle for about 5 minutes last night and it scared me to death. He was pitiful. Thanks for posting this. Very informative and calming.🖤🖤
I Also hace a Beagle, happens like 1 or 2 a month for a couple times a day
my beagles used to do that often and it scared me too !
Our family had our TAZ for 14 years. He reversed-sneezed every so often the older he got. The method I used for him was to roll him over slowly onto his back and rubbed his belly. It worked every time. It calmed him down. My thought process was to help him open the pallet a bit. As I said, it worked every time. Much better than holding him. Holding his ribs was a great method also.
My dog does this almost daily. And sometimes it lasts for 5 minutes. I pat his back and sides and talk soothingly to him to try to calm him down. It doesn't worry me bc I was raised with Boston terriers.
My dog does this almost weekly too. And just yesterday she did like 5 in a row over a period of 5 minutes.
My dog does this almost daily as well. I know this comment is from a year ago so I was wondering if you have done anything else like talked to a vet about it or if it stopped. Just curious! I wanna help my pup haha
My dog does this daily, usually after he gets his treat.
My dog is 9 years old Jackrussel/Shitzu mix. shes been doing this daily for about 8 years. lasts about 20 seconds to a minute.
My pomeranian does this when she looks up at me while trying to smell the food I have in my hands
My Chihuahua/pug does this only when I walk in the house and he gets too excited to see me again. Very odd
Excitement can cause it. Your chihuahua/pug really really loves you!
Same with mine
So do my bulldogs lol
Same here! My chihuahua gets really excited and jumps towards me lol, im glad I found this video
same!! our chi honks when we come home or when we break out his favorite treat. sometimes when he’s scolded too
I thought my chug was just having a severe asthma attack. I was so freaking stressed 😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩
😥
Whew I was scared for my Chihuahua. Thank you!
My dog have a revers sneezing i was so scared
I thought my sisters dog was having a panic attack or heart attack, but thank god I calmed her down doing this without knowing 😭 thank you for this video
All but 1 of my dogs does this, at first I though they were having seizures, but it sounds like they are congested too. I noticed my dogs do it when they are excited and during allergy season...
My dog sounds like a pig when this happens, superloud!
Yess same
Wet their nose trust me
sameee so it sounds different from this and is abit scarier
@@stacylarge5636 wtfffff they would inhale water and choke?
@@annipsy2185 not a dunk a wipe lol
YEA BRO. GOOD LOOKIN OUT ON THE INFO. I WILL KEEP WATCH FOR FREQUENCY.
Our Gracie had cancer in her leg but we were lucky had tried a new treatment and it did the trick very thankful,
Thank you so much! My Miniature Bull Terrier cross fox terrier puppy started doing this a few days ago, and I thought it was either allergies (since she is allergic to grass, she gets spotty, red and itchy since she's mostly white and has pink skin), anxiety or a medical problem. When she does that she gets sad so I hug her and give her a treat or play. Thank you, you've helped everyone not freak out! 💜
My dog Clarence reverse sneezes all the time. I do this routinely and this works for Clarence (your mileage may vary). He is a male Beagle-ish/mutt rescue. Here is my "Computer Mouse" method:
1. Most importantly, help him relax. He may be scared. Not only scared that something is happening he can't control, but that he is doing something wrong. Shower him with praise and love in a very soft voice right next to his face/ear. And why not? He is indeed, a very good boy.
2. Get behind him. Put his snout in your hand like it's a computer mouse with your palm on top. Position it so that the flat of your finger will cover one of his nostrils - like your finger reaching for the mouse button. Hold his snout closed by closing your fingers and make sure no air goes in or out of one of the nostrils. During this time, never stop doing step 1. Your goal here is to force any air he gets or expels through only the one open nostril. 90% is not good enough. ALL air (within reason because you don't ever want to hurt or scare him either).
3. With your other hand, rub his throat in long strokes. I think it's mainly to extend it as much as possible. And again, don't forget to keep doing step 1. All.The.Time.
4. He will start to resist a little at first, but hold firm. Then he will obviously want out. Release him, but don't stop petting him and praising him. If he continues reverse sneezing, do it again, but this time cover the other nostril.
5. Keep repeating this, alternating nostrils until it goes away. Never close both nostrils. Be patient. Sometimes it can take a while. Instead of eyeing the clock, look at your technique and the dog's response. Try something different - less pressure, amount of air sealed, time, etc. Have someone else try it. Maybe he/she is not relaxing enough with you. Don't be offended. Trying being the one that can't stop sneezing without your typical TH-cam user's help.
This method works 100% of the time for Clarence. It's a mixture of the great advice I've seen here at the University of TH-cam along with trial and error because with Clarence, reverse sneezing is a feature - not a bug. The Vet said it's unusual at his frequency, but nothing harmful. And I actually think it's made us even closer because face it, this is a weird bond.
Mike! Thanks this is really helpful. Thanks for sharing
Thank you
I had seen this video years ago and I’ve always remembered it but I’d never 3xperienced it with my dog….until just now @ 245am. My dog was laying on my chest and stood up and starting gasping (or so it sounded). I told myself not to panic bc I’d seen this and knew he was ok but man is it scary. I got him on the bed so I could sit up and held him tightly like u showed, it stopped quickly! It came back a few seconds later but not nearly as bad, so this time I held a little longer. He’s now sleeping peacefully and I am so thankful!!
It happend to my dog so many times and he just did it at night waking me up and im looking if i can help him with it
Same happened with my dog.
Mine keeps doing it repeatedly this has happened to him repeatedly for 10 seconds at a time in a 5 minute time span I hope he’s fine
Just done these! Holding dog helped calm them but holding one nostril for 15 seconds stopped the reverse sneezing instantly- thank you! ♡
My beagle would do this sometimes. I figured she had something in her nose when she did it, so I would block her nose for a split second, then let her huff it out. Worked every time. No matter how much she tried to paw me. She looked begrudgingly grateful. It always reminded me of a toddler trying to keep their mom from blowing their nose.
Our Boston Baxter, who has now passed, got the reverse sneezing when he got too excited because we were going to go for a walk.
this is an AMAZING VIDEO. Thank you SO much.
This just happened to my dog I was so worried 🥺 I’m glad I found this video
My miniature daschund does this when she is excited.first time I freaked out! Went to vet.vet told me was reverse sneezing.she is over 11years old now and I always pick her up and just calm her with soft words.
Love your content!!!
It has broadened my knowledge on my baby.
Thank you!
Thank you for this video. It was most helpful.
I've become agitated ever since my dog got sick and lately he got reverse sneezes. Im searching for many referrence for my dog but this one made me breathe fine and just dont panic. Thank you for this video 😊
thank god i saw this video😭😭 i honestly thought what was wrong with her but thank you for this!!!
I'm glad it helped!
This just to my dog about an hour ago, and I thought that he was having a seizure. It really scared my family. Thank you for this video!!!
You are welcome!
Thank you 🙏🏻 for this information!
Your welcome!
I have a cairn terrier and she does this anytime she goes for a walk in the field or shes playing in the really big field going crazy, it made me feel better thank you
My dog does this almost daily..
@@crystalwood3395 maybe bring her to a vet or something cause I dont think its normal every day, she could have mites in her nose? Make sure to check regularly if the nose is bleeding.
Thank you! I have two Boston’s but one has a much more smushed face like a Frenchie. She seems to do it more frequently maybe a once month. But I just comfort her and that’s it she’s good to go right after.
My older Boston has done it but not nearly as much. I definitely think their breathing palette has something to do with frequency.
Thank you so much. My dog started doing this after I put pine-sol on the garage floor, and it scared the bejeebus out of me today, I thought he was choking. I squeezed his sides whenever an episode started, and that calmed him down and helped the sneezing stop. He still has a little snort every now and then, but not the full blown choking sound anymore, thank goodness.
I literally was so scared when my dog did this randomly for the first time tonight. I was googling everything trying to figure out what it was and got even more scared. Thanks for making this video and letting us pet parents know what it actually is!
Tanks I just woke up and my dog was doing exactly this 😮 and found this video.
Thank you n great video ❤
my dog does it whenever we come back from a vacation haha. she gets so excited to find out we didn’t leave her! 🥺 also, we hold her snout and try to calm her down and that has always worked for us!
thanks for sharing
This video makes me feel alot better. My dog also has problems with occasional seizures so almost anything gets me freaked anymore....
It’s happening to my husky/malamute right now! It scared the crap out of me! I’ve always had dogs my whole like and have never seen this! Thank you for this video!
Thanks for the info. I’ve enjoyed your videos.
Thank you Jenuwen. I appreciate the support. Anything you would like to see in an upcoming video? An issue or question you have about Boston’s?
THANK YOU SO MUCH
Thank you so so so much we didn’t know what to do as this helped you are amazing
I'm glad it helped!
They are the cutest dogs.
Thank you. My Cockapoo is doing it this morning.
My 5 month old Boston does it pretty much every morning after he eats or as we get outside. (Started a few weeks ago once we recovered from kennel cough) Absolutely terrifying. Been to the vets and didn’t get any feedback. They said that they can check it out during neutering. Some advice I found which helps to our little guy is to open his mouth so he can inhale through it and usually it stops sneezing.
Kate Maksimchuk dang. Bella gets them very sportically she is spayed but not sure if that helped lessen the number of episodes or not. Thanks for the tip of opening your Boston’s mouth. Hopefully your little Boston grows out of it!
This helped so much. Omg.
Thank you I started crying thinking he was choking or something😭🙏🥰
This just happened to my boy tonight for the first time. it really scared me. Thanks for your video.
covering one nostril is a game changer! I saw a vet on tik tok use this method and it works so good! usually stops it within seconds and do it again if it doesn't completely stop it until it stops. Usually 10 seconds after it starts, this method stops works perfectly on my 2 bostons
Thank you so much for this. I'm here to search what's it called. My dog just had this kind of episode few minutes ago for the first time in 7 years. I didn't do any of the things you've said as it was my first, instead I gave him an anti-allergy medicine it worked. 💝
Thank you, our beautiful little whippet was just doing this and I found your video. Thank you very much 🙏🏼 💕
You’re welcome!
I’m glad the video helped
Thanks bosten
Thank you
Thank you 🙏🏼
My dogs both suffer from reverse sneezing, one is a lab/x mix with a deep chest area, the other is a samoyed/collie mix with a long body, both have been abused before i got them home.
My vet told me that reverse sneezing oftens comes from them not sinking their spit right when exited/scared. I believe thats right cause when the samoyed mix gets spooked by someting he risk a reverse sneeze cause his spit go down his windpipe.. its so scary the first time you witness a reverse sneeze, i felt so helpless and were trying to hold the nose and make them open their mouth to check if the dogs were choking on something.. but after watching videos i now know the best way to help my boys if needed. 🐕👌🏻
Sorry for bad grammer, english is my third language, so feel free to correct my spelling :)
Tibbe Tabbi your English is exceptional
Good job and you type better than most English people type
Much Love and God Bless
You have a good English actually.😊
Thanks guys :)
Thankyouuu!!🥺❤️
I had a Basset Hound who would reverse sneeze. We’d never seen this with our previous dogs. We talked to the vet about it, and he was able to replicate what it sounded like himself, which was pretty funny at the time.
It’s been so long that I don’t remember what he recommended. Thanks for the tips.
idk if my dog's having a reverse sneeze but it is the closest thing to it and he does it every wee hours in the morning. I honestly don't know what to do til I found this video, thank you very much!
Our dog experienced this just a few mins ago omfg it was so scary 😭 thank God he's fine now i think. I hope this mever hapoens again cause it's really so worrying huhu
😭 thank you!!!
Thank you, my boxer started doing this on my lap today and it’s the first time I’ve seen her do it ever (she’s 7)
😊
I just love Boston terriers they are my favorite dog breed. I used to have 2 Bostons and my girl Marlee had these but my male Jack he never had them. I miss my Boston's they passed away years ago but I would love to have another Boston in the future.
Thank you so much for posting 🙏🏼 it can be really scary if your dog suddenly starts doing this...🐶 thanks to „Bella“ for explaining as well 🥰 she is such a cutie ❤️ greetings to you all from Austria 🤗
You are welcome!
My dog started doing this today! Was really worried. She calmed down from petting her. Also, I the one nostril breathing is a technique used in yoga
Thank you so much for doing this video. Very alarming for us when our pup started doing this, so it helps to have something to calm us down :)
You’re welcome 😉 thanks!
I've ALWAYS wondered what that was!!
God Bless you sir
My favorite dog ever
😊
My dogs being doing this for a while now…. And shes a maltese, so thank you for this.
Omg I just got so scared jumped out of my bed real quick all scares , thx 🙏🏾 I really thought it was serious
Great advice! When our Bostons do that we hold their chests & rub their throats. It does seem to help.
Thanks!
This is what I did! All three of my babies it helped.
The AKC and WebMD have similar (to each other) recommendations: "A common remedy is to hold the dog’s nostrils closed for a second and lightly massage its throat to calm him. Lightly blowing in his face may also help. This should cause the dog to swallow a couple of times, which will usually stop the spasm of the reverse sneeze. Getting the dog in a cool area or outside with fresh air while trying to verbally calm him can also be useful."
Thank you so much!! My big dog just did this and I got so scared 😭
I have a Chihuahua and she’s reverse sneezed every once in a while (not too often, mostly in spring or temperature change) since she was about a year old.
It is interesting how each dog is different.
Smaller dogs have a greater tendency to develop collapsed or partially collapsed trachea. My Min Pin Chi mix has experienced the backwards sneezing from seasonal allergies. Recently, however, he's had violent sneezing and reverse sneezing fits accompanied by loads of green/yellow mucus (sorry - TMI!) He even experienced a light bloody nose, which quickly resolved. We tried a course of antibiotics last week but the icky mucus and sneezing fits remain. Going to get him checked this week for nasal mites. Long story not at all short: nasal mites also can be a cause and *must* be treated by a vet.
thank you so much
You're welcome!
Thanks, I never heard about this. My dog has bouts of unexplained anxiety and randomly does this, its scary, she looks scared. I gently blow in her face and tell her its ok🧡
My Medium Sized Rescue started snorting and I was terrified! But she’s okay, she has a large nose though, and now I’m worried my 13 yr old Bichon will start. But now I know how to help, This was a good video.
Thank you! And if it is ever something you are truly concerned with I would call your vet to have your dogs checked out.
THIS JUST HAPPENED TO MY DOG RN AND I THOUGHT SHE'S GONNA DIE 😭😭😭
omfg thank you so much for this video my beagle started doing this yesterday and i thought he was choking 😭 he did it again today and i think it may be due to getting mowed grass up his little nose.
My Bichon Frise does this I think its because we’re coming into winter and the cold weather but good to know she’s okay 🥺
We have a 13 yr old mix dog that does this like 4-5 times a day. She's been to several specialist and spent thousands of dollars for them to find out what was wrong with her, and, well, nothing. As tends to have it more during the heavier pollen seasons (spring/fall).
My beagle just did this after our long (for her) walk, thanks for the tips 🙏🏻
Happy to help!
My buddy that’s a Boston terrier that past away not to long ago sadly did it a lot I always rub him on the side of the chest area
So happy I have found your channel. My Boston throws up after meals and she is thin. I worry she has some kind of disorder. A friend told me maybe Cushing disease. Would you happen to know? Thank you
I hope this helps...

Happen everyday to my boston, and a lot of breathing things. They are made wrong, but lovely dogs. I love my puma so much
Thank you 🙏🏾
You are welcome!
Well wanted to see what it looked like
My 10 yr old pug Maggie has done this her whole life. It's not dangerous doesn't seem to bother her. Now today she started with a bad cough, might have to see Dr if this continues.
Update on my pugs cough, she has had the reverse sneezing her whole life,(10) now she has a collapsed trachea, not good. It's common Always watch for signs in pugs and Boston's, better to catch it early.
Thank you so much for this video! Very helpful and informative!
Thank you for the kind words. I really appreciate the support.
I had a Boston that was a runt who had health problems & she did that almost every day for any reason. The vet explained it was common but ok. She sounded worse than his dog cause mine had a snort with each sneeze but only lasted 20 - 30 seconds.
I really freaked out! Thought my dog has dyspnea or something. Thank you for this video
I'm glad the video helped!
My 12 year old lab is mixed with boston terrier. I experienced this for the first time yesterday when I let her out in the backyard. I freaked out so bad that my neighbors came rushing. Luckily, they knew what was happening and reassured me that she wasn't dying. I felt really embarrassed but I was also happy that it was nothing serious 😅
I’m happy it was nothing serious too. When Bella did it the first time I thought she was choking.
@@BostonTerrierSociety Lol, I was ready to give an arm and a leg if it meant that my baby survived 🤣. She now has little reverse sneezes here and there but when it happens, I just use your method. It works! So thank you so much for the tips 🙂
Omg! We have the same dog with he same name!!!
Happened to my ChiGi last night and I was scared AF! As far as pollutant, I have a lot of plants so I would've thought the opposite. Thanks for the video!
Thank you for sharing this I have a Chihuahua and she was the runt of the litter she has always done this but all the time but seems to be getting more and more everytime she drinks water ?? The other day freaked me out she kept doing it but she didn't act like she was choking cause she still was trying to do her little cycle happy dance but should I be concerned?? As I said she always has done this all the time
oml ty so much my dog started doing this 1 hour ago and I took him outside and tried to calm him down I thought he was having a seizure i’ve been up all night watching him sleep so he won’t die on me thanks lol
Thank you so much for this. my dog started reverse sneezing minutes ago and now she's asleep. She's 4 years old i thought somethings wrong with her so i search it thankyou for your help gonna do this next time when it does happen again.but still hope that she doesn't do it again,it pains me actually hehehhe i just my love dog so much seeing her in pain or something hits me 2x more but thanyou again it helps a lot🐶
Thank you for this. We just rushed our doggo to the vet this morning. It freaked us out so much. 😭😭😭
