What Is a Reverse Sneeze in Dogs? 🤧🐶 Haley's dog, Yoyo, would LOVE to show you! If your pup suddenly starts making loud snorting or honking sounds, it can be pretty alarming — but it might just be a reverse sneeze, and it’s usually nothing to worry about! So what’s happening? During a reverse sneeze, dogs rapidly pull air in through their nose instead of out. It’s their body’s way of clearing irritation from the throat or soft palate. What does it look like?

Reverse sneezing is caused by a throat irritation such as pollen or dust from sniffing dusty areas. To correct this, gently stroke the neck and try to calm them or cover one nostril for a few seconds to make your dog swallow and clear out a possible irritant. Once your dog exhales through the nose, the attack is usually over. It seems scary but is normal and happens when dogs get excited! @cookietheween . . . . . . #dachshund #dachshundsofinstagram #sausagedog #dogsofinstagram #dog #doxie #dachs
