Your video was so very thorough and informative! You do a tremendous job at explaining things in simple terms for the average pet owner! Extremely helpful! So my dog has been experiencing this “reverse sneezing” for quite a few years now, pretty much daily, a couple episodes a day. I’ve asked my vet about it a few times, and recently I was able to show her a couple videos of it happening. We were primarily there for an ear infection issue, but I had mentioned the cough as well when making the appointment. After seeing the videos she conducted her exam. She looked in his nose, ears and throat, listened to his heart and respiration. She concluded that it was just reverse sneezing. Im not really sure what all she checked for or “ruled out” but, I assume she didn’t find anything alarming or im sure she would’ve requested further tests.? I stressed my concerns with the frequency it happens, but she assured me that it is just the reverse sneezing. So what I was hoping you could tell me given the limited info I’ve provided, was do you think it sounds like my vet was thorough in her exam and ultimate prognosis? Or do you think I should request further testing of some kind? Thank you again for this incredibly helpful video! Until now, I had never seen a dog have this kind of episode. But seeing other dogs do exactly what my dog does when RS’ing really eased my mind! 🙏🏼
im going through the exact same thing. i expressed my concern that it could be a collapsed trachea and they did an xray but she turned out to be healthy, thankfully. the frequency is really concerning though. mine is still a puppy
Thank you! My 6 months old Beagle reverse sneezed while she's sniffing grasses when i walked her. I was so scared because i thought something terrible happened, but then only in seconds she back to normal and continued sniffing while walking happily 🥲
Hey. I am glad he is okay. :) Just monitor for any yellow foul smelling discharge form either nostril, as this could indicate an infection secondary to a grass seed foreign body stuck in the sinuses.
I have a dog allergic to dust mites. She does this all year long. Poor thing has all the symptoms from severe skin issues to recurring yeast infections in the ears. She has been having episodes lately that last a long time and it's been really aggressive. I tried taking her outside like you said and it's helped so much. Thank you!
@KAT-dg6el I wished it was that easy. Dust is everywhere. It's in the air inside and outside. It is a very costly allergy. Despite cleaning my house multiple times a week, I also have to bathe her twice a week with a medicated shampoo. That plus a shot once a month seems to keep her comfortable. During spring and fall, though, it gets uncontrollable at times. It's been a battle but I think we are winning. Haha
Thank you very much for this video! Last night my 4 months old toy poodle puppy had the episode and we rushed to the vet at 4 in the morning because I thought he might die, I got super scared. We did all of the exams and the vet said he is fine and it might pass with time.
We have a 1 yr old maltise, she does it 4-5 times a week, but seems fine other wise, Do fragrance candles or perfumes play a role ? , thank you for a very informative video.
My Shih Tzu started this from around 4 months of age. During such an episode, gently press their nostrils. It will stop immediately. The idea is to block the nose openings so as to induce mouth inhalation. My dog does this randomly, sometimes while eating, playing or just sitting. I haven't found any specific thing that triggers it. But I must say with age, she is having these much less frequently. I've also trained my elder Shiz Tzu to press the younger ones nostrils with front paws during such episodes. With God's grace, we have someone always around and attentive. Take care everyone.
My Jack Russell does RS here and there but suddenly (in the last 2 weeks) he seems to be doing it more so. What about heat? We have been under a heat wave 95+ the last several days (we have about 3 more days of the heat wave to go). We have been inside the majority of the time.....I have the fan on in the room as well as the a/c going. We have not done anything out of the ordinary, the Mrs. (a Yorkie mix) is fine. I have a feeling it's a mix of the heat, fans, and possibly dust particles coming from the fan. what do you think?
Thanks! I just adopted another dog. We brought him home and I thought it was wheezing. Sounds more like reverse sneezing. I felt so bad for the little guy, but he likely has so many factors bothering him just getting out of the pound. He was the only chihuahua in the pound! Poor guy, he is opening up though!
Our Yorkie does this only after we have been absent from the house so I attribute the trigger in her to excitement to seeing one of us return home or seeing people she loves who come back into her life. We try to just soothe her and pay her some gentle attention and the episode is shortly over. Let them just settle in to having their loved one back home and demonstrate no panic of your own which in her case would only excite her further. Gentle speaking tone, pets and rubs are all she needs to reassure her that her "pack" is back and all is normal again in her life.
When my girl does this, I help her hold her breath for a second and it helps every time. She is a shih tzu/bichon mix and has done this since she was a pup.
I have a Pekingese and he was .... well, what I think it was ...... chocking after he ate his food too quickly . He could not breath and it was shocking but I had a syringe and forced water down to remove the blockage. Was that right to do and how do I tell if he was chocking or reverse sneezing as I would think the gums and tongue would turn blue in both cases?? So enjoy your posts ... greetings from Australia
I think my dog does it sometimes on purpose like when he wants me to come pick him up and lay with me or I call him over and then he stops but I also think he does it when he can't help it
but also I just got two puppies they're a year old and now they're making the noise once in awhile I don't know what to think don't know what to do and the vet say nothing's wrong
Yup. My dachshund learned we got scared and went running to him. Now when he wants attention and none of his others tricks worked he might then try doing this.
Such a long video but didnt tell what to do when the dog is reverse sneezing some home treatment sos nothing whats the use Some video showed blocking nose and put a finger in his mouth if he is friendly
@@taydawg303 started the sneezing or doing it for attention? He does it when he sees me [his mama] he gets excited the the sneeze comes. He does it when he wants my partner to notice him, he also grunts when he sees ive almost finished my dinner. Hes reminding me that he's still there and thinks im forgetting about him. You see im bed ridden so he sits with me for as long as he can, almost 24 hours a day, so i know him really well, ive lived with dogs since the day I was born so i can understand dogs very well too.
Hello, Im sorry to hear your dog reverse sneezes. Its not nice for them. But, my 9 month old chihuahua makes the same noise. He honks like a goose. Im really worried that it's tracheal collapse. I know only a vet will be able to diagnose what it is but I'm hoping it is only reverse sneezing. Did you ever think it was tracheal collapse with your dog? xx

thank you for the sitrep on reverse sneezing. Our Cavoodle does this from time to time.
Thank you for such a detailed explanation.
My dog doesn't make it up...his reverse sneezes revolve around allergy season.
I have a pitty and he does it every once in a while and that’s why I just looked it up to see wtf was happening thanks for the video

My dog is doing exactly like that when he is eating or drinking.
Thank you!

Very good information, thank you. Suggestion, please keep your hands more quiet as it is very distracting from your message - meant nicely.
Some people talk with their hands. Learned this in speech class..
Gracias

My chihuahua does this for attention seeking too! He learned this over time.
How do you know for sure it’s for attention?
My dog started it
