HELP!! My pup has been reverse sneezing on and off since last night. I noticed her scratching her face and drooling a bit too. When I took her to the ER, they just showed me a video of a reverse sneezing episode. How long should I wait to take her to the vet? Should I try Zyrtec?

Dog's reverse sneezing is getting out of control, vet doesn't want to x-ray

Reposting because some idiot downvoted to zero so this post never got seen. I'm worried about my dog's health, if you don't like the post kindly ignore it instead of downvoting for no reason. If my post goes against community guidelines, do let me know.

...

I've been telling my vet for months I want to do an x-ray because I feel my 1 year old indie dog has a foreign body lodged somewhere in her nasal cavity. She has been pawing at her ears and nose from the time I got her (she's a rescue who was living on the streets). She puts her paw behind her ear and moves it forward, as though trying to push something out.

Over the last two months she's been reverse sneezing a LOT. The vet put her on a course of antibiotics for upper respiratory infection. She extended the course when the sneezing didn't clear up, but she's still doing it. The sneezing fits have grown longer in duration, can last up to 15 minutes, and her breathing becomes very labored. They usually happen at night, or while she's lying on her side, but I have also seen her do it at different times of the day, and while standing/running around. My dog doesn't get upset by these fits, but they do really worry me. There's been no nasal discharge, except one time when there was a little clear discharge from the nose.

She's on antihistamines in case it's allergies, but they don't seem to be working. The sneezing is getting more frequent and longer bouts in my opinion, and there doesn't seem to be any pattern. She also often gives one hacking/honking cough after drinking water, even when using a raised water bowl. She has had her kennel cough vaccine. She also spent 3 weeks at a board and train facility, and the reverse sneezing started after that, but the pawing at her face was happening before she went.

I'm worried about either tracheal collapse or a foreign body lodged in somewhere in there. She came to me very malnourished with a few scars around her head and other body parts, so I have no idea what physical trauma she may have suffered while on the streets. She also is a very nervous dog, scared of literally everything, especially metal, so I know doing an x-ray won't be easy. But I do think it's the best course of action, but my vet doesn't seem to agree.

Any advice is much appreciated.

Edit: Thank you for all the advice. The thing is I have taken her to two vets. They both feel it is likely caused by allergies, but no idea what she could be allergic to. Like I said earlier antihistamines aren

[Help] Reverse sneezing, when should I be concerned?

Spring is in the air! Literally...Snow mold, dust, pollen, you name it! It has emerged from beneath the snow and being it’s my dogs first spring, I think it’s getting to her. She’s been reverse sneezing since the start of spring and does it at night or in the morning and then a couple of times throughout the day for 30 seconds or less. I’ve read this is normal for allergic dogs (just like her momma) but that it could be an infection as well. For now she’s completely unfazed by it, energy levels the same, a bit more tears on the eyes but we’ve been cleaning those off. I am keeping an eye on it and will ask my vet if it persists or gets worse, just wondering if anyone has experience with this.

[Help] Reverse sneezing, unusual breathing sounds, and reluctance to eat

I adopted my Black Lab/Border Collie in December of 2018, and was told he was between 1 and 1.5 yo. In all this time, I'd never seen him (or any other dog) reverse sneeze, but he's done it a couple times this week. That alone wouldn't worry me, but he's also been making unusual breathing sounds and is reluctant to eat his food - several times this week he has barely eaten any breakfast and/or takes several hours to finally eat dinner. (For the record, he doesn't eat lunch)

I made a vet appointment for Monday morning, but am I overreacting at all? How likely is it that this is all just [new] allergies?

Prednisone for reverse sneezing?

My 13 y/o Potcake has been reverse sneezing 7-8 times a day for the past 3 days. Took him in yesterday and the vet couldn’t see anything in the nasal passage after she probed his nose.

She said he could try a 6-day prednisone steroid pack but I’m wondering if that seems normal for this type of condition. I feel like Benadryl or a nasal spray of sorts would be the more common option, but of course I’m no vet.

Any advice is appreciated!

Puppy started reverse sneezing and now is snorting/snoring very loud in her sleep.

Hello everyone, thank you in advance for your help! My 5 month old puppy spent all yesterday at my aunts with her dogs running around and playing. That night she drank water and started reverse sneezing. It nearly gave me a heart attack until I googled it! She had a couple more episodes through the night.

Now she is asleep but has been snoring very loud. It’s almost like a snorting really. Is there something blocking her airways or her nose? Should I go to the vet? I already have an appointment on Tuesday for a potential UTI. I’m not sure whether to wait it out or see if I can get in earlier.

[Help] I recently adopted a dog, and she has been having non-stop reverse sneezing fits

I took her to the vet, who told me to give her benadryl every 8-12 hours. This doesn't seem to be helping, she's now having sneezing bouts every 5 to 10 mins. This gets worse when I take her on walks, where she'll usually sneeze 2/3 of her time outside (example, on a 10 min walk she's sneezes almost 8 mins of the time). Has anyone else dealt with this?

Reverse Sneezing: Both of our dogs have recently started

Hello,

We have two dogs, different breeds, 2 years apart in age. We moved here to the PNW (Eugene, OR) last August. Just recently (a week or two ago), our Welsh Terrier started reverse sneezing on a daily basis, somewhat sporadically. Now she does it generally a few times in the morning when we get up, and then mostly when we take her for a walk (she walks 3x/day), but also occasionally during the day.

Our other dog has now started the reverse sneezing thing at the beginning of this week, basically the same times, when first getting up, walking, etc.

Here's more info on each dog:

Welsh Terrier, 9 years, female, spayed, approx 23#, Super-healthy.

Cockapoo, 7 years old, female, spayed, approx 20#, bad knees, generally healthy.

Should we be concerned about the reverse-sneezing? Is it possible or likely that they could both be allergic to pollen or something else that's causing the reverse sneezing?

Thank you

Any thoughts are extremely helpful!

Terrier mix, continuous reverse sneezing and green mucus from nose that wont go away.

Dog 10 y/o neutered male, 37lbs.

Randomly last august as we were at the park walking, something we did regularly this all started.

A few hours later after coming home, he started to what i thought was gasping for air. As i panicked to the emergency vet they said it was reverse sneezing, benadryl once a day would solve it. I followed up with another vet cause i just couldnt justify benadryl for what seemed to me that he was suffocating. The new vet did a whole physical as he was due for his senior one anyway, all blood work was normal. Lungs and heart are all normal, urine was normal. They suggested he may have a collapsing trachea(apparently very common in smaller breeds) or a allergy but nothing to worry about. Prescribed steroids and an antibiotic for a precaution.

Moving along to current times, benadryl isnt helping, he has now thick(i mean thick) yellow/green mucus coming out of his nose, i made a appointment with my vet they said he did have an ear infection, what she could see in his nose was clear and they put him on mometavet, apoquel for allergies, and doxycycline for nasal infection. Its been 9 days and nothing has changed besides his ears are better.

I have a follow up appointment on the 25th but that will possibly include xrays, and possible scoping. Im having a hard time affording the estimate they gave me and im trying to do what i can.

Which should come first? Scoping or just xrays? Will this ever get solved? Any suggestions on what it could be or maybe over looked? My vet thinks im making up the symptoms.

Tldr: dog has had constant reverse sneezing, sneezing and green mucus after course of antibiotics, vet says everything is ok.

my dog (almost 2 years old rat terrier/coonhound/american eskimo mix) gets these episodes from time to time (maybe once every 1-2 weeks), what I recorded today was the worst that I've ever seen it. I'm wondering if this is something to be concerned about, I've seen some videos of dogs making similar noises reverse sneezing but they didn't seem quite this severe. When he starts doing it I usually rub his throat to encourage him to swallow, which helps sometimes.

Gulping sound & reverse sneezing in newly adopted dog

Hi all, We just adopted a puppy last Saturday. Her energy level is normal, appetite is normal, she’s playing frequently, taking walks, peeing/pooping normally, but she keeps making this pronounced swallowing sound. When she plays, walks, eats, etc, it’s not present. She’s up to date on shots too. Thank you for your assistance!

Dog 7mo old Spayed female Mix breed (believed to be chihuahua whippet) 15lbs

History: adopted from Texas, living in Bergen County NJ. Adoption center vet gave clean Bill of health with no known medical history save for diarrhea attributed to stress from travel (has since stopped)

Signs: she keeps having sneezing fits, runny nose(clear discharge), occasional reverse sneezing(1-2 fits daily, usually night time), and making this gulping/swallowing noise.

Duration: 18 hours or so now for the gulpingβ€” we did give her nextgard yesterday morning and it seemed to happen a few hours after that.

Sudden onset of reverse sneezing w. Hot dry nose?

Hey guys,

Our lovely 3.5year old mini dox has developed some odd behavior in the last 3 days. She's started these fits of reverse sneezing without a consistent pattern.... Sometimes it happens when her breathing is heavier (jumping/running), sometimes when sniffing normally and sometimes mid sleep.

This morning we noticed her nose is hot and dry.

Anyone experience this w your Doxie?

Dog coughing, reverse sneezing with exertion.
  • Species: A good boy (Dog)
  • Age: 8
  • Sex/Neuter status: Male, neutered
  • Breed: Maltese
  • Body weight: 9lbs
  • History: Epilepsy since he was a pup, treated wit phenobarbital 16.2mg 1 and a half times daily
  • Clinical signs: He has developed a tendency to cough and hack, especially after some exertion like playing. On occasion he has coughed up foamy spittle. I would estimate at least 1 coughing fit every minute of running around, far less if he's relaxing, but still frequent enough to be noticeable. It's not constant, but it could be Kennel Cough? Being a small breed he's always had issues with reverse sneezing, but this has become more frequent. Sometimes I can hear him breathing more heavily. He's not too deterred despite all this and still insists on running around like his heels are on fire. He's also eating and drinking just fine.
  • Duration: This has been ongoing for 3 weeks now. He's slowly gotten worse, though he still has plenty of energy and it doesn't seem to bug him too much. I'm just concerned because of how long it's gone on, and it doesn't seem to be getting better.
  • Your general location: Indiana, USA
  • Links to test results, vet reports, X-rays etc. N/A. This is the sad part. He's technically my parents' dog, but I keep him most of the time. They're financially capable, but unwilling ("We'll take him if it gets serious, but we're not paying for life-saving treatment"). I'm not financially capable, but will do whatever I can to ensure my friend's wellbeing.

Is this something I should take him to the vet for?

Cue rant.

2020 hit me hard. I lost my job, twice, and it destroyed whatever meager savings I'd garnered up to that point. That said I will take him to the vet if it's suggested. I really don't understand my parents' reasoning. They don't want to take him now because of the cost and just want to wait to see if it'll get better on its own. Thing is, it'll be far more expensive if it gets worse, and there's a greater chance that a relatively young dog will die early, especially with their unwillingness to pay for life-saving treatment. Nevermind the suffering he'd have to endure to get to that point. These are upper-middle class people who pay thousands for vacations, drive nice cars, have a nice house, but will nickle-and-dime at every opportunity. Don't get me wrong, I can understand in some situations it's smart to spend like you're poor, but at the expense of your pet? "It's just a dog"
