    Dog is Hacking/wheezing HELP!

        My little terrier seems to be hacking and wheezing this morning. It's been going on for awhile. She's walking around just fine, but she still won't stop wheezing. Should I be worried? Any help is appreciated!

    Edit: Sorry for posting this in the wrong section if I did!

    Have you checked her airway? Are her gums, blue or gray?

    Sounds like something may be lodged in her throat...I don't know if this is a good thing, but my mom always said to give them some bread! If it continues...off to the vet I'd go!

    It seems like she's getting better, she's not wheezing as much, there isn't anything in her airway I believe. She was just laying on my bed for awhile and was napping a bit without a sound. Her gums look normal. She also is her happy self still.

    Edit: Could it be stress? My sisters dogs are currently over and one is a puppy that likes to play rough. (he's a 15lb pekineese)

    Hopefully, someone else will come along who knows better than I do!

    Thanks for the help guys anyways. I found this, sounds pretty normal.

    If you go down someone replies about reverse breathing caused by stress. That's what she sounds like. A snorting sound.

    Hi.
    My pom was recently doing the same thing..it was only our third day together so I freaked and we went to the vet. They put keiichi on amoxilin just in case...but he said normally its nothing bad if they are still playing and eating and things like that.
    Hope that helps a little.

    Thanks for the info. She stopped like as soon as my sister took her dogs back. She's her happy self again. [:)]
