When it is occurring the best thing to do is calm the dog and don't act upset yourself so they don't feed off fear as well. Then, lightly pinch their nose and softly rub their neck and it will stop. there is a difference between a trachea actually collapsing and reverse sneezing. Reverse sneezing is due to irritants in the nasal cavities and it is similar to snorting to remove the irritants. Our dog does it during pollen season. We learned best way to avoid with allergens is wash paws after being out side so they don't lick the allergens with either a 1/2 cup lemon balm tea or green tea and 1/2 cup of Bragg's ACV dip. More convenient would be WaterWipes Baby Wipes wipedown as they have no toxins, no formaldehyde or chlorine like other wipes. Sometimes it can occur with changes of temp cold to hot/hot to cold or drinking too fast at those times simply pinch the nose lightly and it will stop. We, also, and it is recommended by holistic vets give during allergy seasons NonGMO Vitamin C Powder by Pure Radiance in a warm lemon balm tea and manuka honey or local honey by dropper and it aids in allergies and helped as well. We do these regimens during summer and spring to avoid the reverse sneezing or any sign of it coming on. Dr Karen Becker has a great video on this as well discussing the same thing.
@@bluesky4255 Our dog is directly from S Korea and bringing him to Texas with lots of pollen was a huge issue at first. Big thing is stay calm since dogs feed off your emotion as well, pinch the nose and rub the throat and it does stop. For prevention: I can tell you the lemon balm tea with local honey or manuka honey in oral dropper, quercetin with bromelain and NonGMO vitamin C has worked wonders for us. Wiping the paws during the summer/spring with water wipes that have no toxins after walks to get rid of pollen/toxins/fertilizers so they don't lick them. You you can also use povidone iodine watered down to tea color to paw dip as well gets rid of yeast and bacteria as well. lemon balm tea is just less messy with being colorless. Antibiotics will do worse as they destroy the good gut bacteria which increases inflammation. Also, coming in from outside from cold to warm can be a trigger and consider a harness vs a dog collar itself since pulling on the throat when walking increases reverse sneezing as well. we, also, noticed dairy since it increases mucous can be a trigger too. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-6-akZHoQZWM.html
I now live with my GF and well she still has the Cockatiels and Parakeets, that I gave her do to my allergies years back. Does anyone think that this may be a big issue. I myself have allergies still and our bedroom and bathroom sadly is my only safe place because we keep the doors closed. Otherwise I'm wearing a mask if I'm doing work around the house. We eat in the bedroom. She loves the birds more than me. LoL. That's ok though, they are beautiful creatures who always get very happy when we're coming home. They know we are coming from all the way from the parking spot.
I really think it is reverse sneezing. After he/she drank water you notice it and also he/she didnt seem too affected by it, they still seemed to be moving around
Drinking water doesn’t always show anything. Later if it gets worse they will have a choking sound when drinking. Just prop the water bowl up higher on a small stool
My dog does this too! He’s been on antibiotics, been checked out but the vet, and had xrays and nothing really showed up. I hope you and your dog are doing well!
My Pomeranian does that all the time. But he does it violently and it looks and sounds painful, and he gags after. I asked my grandma, and she said "he's choking on a flap in his throat". But I think it may be tracheal collapse. But I can't tell her, because she always thinks she's right, and there's no convincing her that she's wrong unless you show literal proof.
This is exactly what’s going on with my Yorkie I have to take her to the vet again because I notice it started after she left the vet Friday and they put some medicine in her nose
@@skyygenies8713 yes it did thank goodness I was worried and called her vet so they informed me that if it doesn’t get better then I could bring her in because she might was allergic
My dog does the exact same thing and also does it when she barks aggressive. Do you know for sure if it is collapsed trachea and if so what are the treatments the vet told you? Also did the vet say she would be okay?
Your dog is beautiful! I have one just like yours. My Daisy has a collapsed tracheae : how is your dog doing. I just now noticed your video was dated 2018. So I really wondered how your dog was doing. My dog is 10 how old is your dog? I now have to give her all kinds of medicine, do you have to? When mine started the goose horn barking sounds (that’s what the vets call that sad annoying sound. Every Medication you buy for them and it don’t work you lose out all that money. They don’t take anything back which I understand. And every time you take her back in for the same thing because something did not work they make you pay $75 just to walk through the door.X-rays every time $192 plus $45.00 if she needs sedation. And new types of medicine yet again. These meds aren’t cheap specially if they don’t work, no refund. May I asked what your dog takes medicine wise? Seems like each time I go to the vet for this they give me a quote of over $500 for anything they’re going to do, but not the medicine. Can you tell me a little story about how your dog gy
I suspect my dog has this, I notice it when we go from inside the house to outdoors in the cold air alot he starts making these noises. A little trip to the vets is on the cards
Will massaging his throat or patting his back help? My dog does that really hard and it looks painful. He also gags after. I'm always scared he will suffocate to death or something. I don't want that to happen because I love him.
You guys should see my little guy. He has fits where it looks like his whole body is contracting and he can't breathe. And just like that it's over in 10 seconds.
This happens to my 15 year old Maltese. It scares the heck out of me because he also has heart disease. I thought it was the heart not the traquea, except it happens right after he’s been coughing.
@@Mofongo2024 get an X-ray to be safe. He’ll need medications if it’s the trachea. My dog was diagnosed at 7 and it got worse and with the medications she has good and bad days. Don’t overlook that.
My pom always does that, and he gags after. I can't convince my parents to give him an x-ray because my mom can't drive and my grandma is lazy and thinks he's fine, and there's no convincing her otherwise.
Bom dia! Pra mim é uma honra viu prestigiar seu trabalho, vamos sempre juntos somar e fortalecer nossos objetivos, Conto com você, eu já estou por aqui,,
She just drank a bit too much a bit too quick i wouldnt worry,Its the same as what would happen if you choked on a bit of water, A collapsed trachea in small dogs sounds more like a high pitched hacking type sound.
L & B NATION thanks! Yes the vet says he thinks it’s more like Reverse sneezing which involves the soft palette in their mouths. She has had s good year as far as these little attacks. Has had one bad one in the middle of the night that went in for about 30-45 seconds and a few little ones after drinking
@@mountainman8775 I think the Bichon mixed into a lot of these dogs makes them all tend to look the same as they mature. They lose their colors and turn white.
shoppinggirl125 not yet. She doesn’t do it very much... so right now we aren’t too concerned. But I get video for the vet to show him when we see him again
AlexZ3T we still don’t know. She can go for months and not do it at all. This spring (March, maybe) she had a bad week of doing it after drinking water and a long scary drawn out one when being awakened at night. But then nothing since then. Good luck with your dog. I think it is reverse sneezing and they say it isn’t dangerous. But it’s scary
Not panicking. And now, years after this video, her vet does think she has beginnings of collapsing trachea. Because she also does this huge cough and choking thing when she gets super excited like when people come over. And she wakes up in bed doing it at night. And it’s super common with small dogs. We don’t panic. But yeah… we do tend to our dog’s health and needs.
@@espyetta yes I know exactly what you mean 💗 As long as she’s happy and has a good quality of life, just let her be. Try not to get your dog excited. If it does just calm her down. Pick her up or whatever calms her down. You know your dog better than anybody
@@espyetta my dog does the exact same thing and does it when she barks aggressive. Does your vet know for sure if it’s collapsed trachea and if so what is the cure? And also will they be okay with collapsed trachea
@@tristanwiggins803 Vet doesn’t think it’s collapsing trachea. But many of the members of the collapsing trachea Facebook page do. They say it’s how their dog with CT started out. Just some “reverse sneezing” when they wake up from deep sleep, getting overly excited, drinking water. I think one day this will be a diagnosis Zoey gets. She’s 5 now. She does it off and on. Sometimes it seems seasonal. No cure but if you get on the Facebook page they talk about a lot of meds and tips to support your dog through it. Like hydrocodone, powdered oyster, keeping dog cool with fan on them, etc. Good Luck.
Its good to hear from youtube dog experts. I didn't hear anything abnormal. I have a 13 yr old toy poodle, he makes exact same noise when he drinks. That dog looks perfectly healthy.
@@POSS99 yes my Jack Russell acts like a puppy. She just turned 8. It’s so sweet when they don’t realize they’re sick. She’s happy and seems healthy so it’s a day to day illness. Hopefully she has good quality of life. That’s the main thing.💓
My Maltese dunked it's face under muddy water and after hosing him down, he's been making similar noises. Not sure if that's just reverse sneezing or something more serious, like something toxic in the water or mud in his nose?
