Reverse Sneezing
Luna was having what i thought to be some breathing problems. But i found on the internet this so called "reverse sneezing" (lots of examples on youtube). Did not ask the vet yet if this is the case but i probably will.
Just wondering if any of you seen this at your dog and what did you do about it?

yes .. probably 3 or 4 times since she's been with me
( 3 years this august )
alarming at first .. cause i'd never heard a dog do it before .. ..
then found out it was not so unusual ..
didn't last long .. no untoward signs of anything else ..and what did you do about it?
waited 'till she finished 'n said "gesundheit"
this seems to explain it well enough:

Katy does this every now & then, it helps her if I pat her chest between the front legs quite hard. I have been told it's quite common in deep chested dogs

Re: Reverse Sneezing
if your dog seems stressed by reverse sneezing, gently hold your hand over his nostrils & apply very gentle pressure. it often stops it straight away.
