We call it the “goose” sound. 2 of my 3 do it frequently.

My vet calls it a reverse sneeze. She does this in her sleep or when she’s really excited about seeing me and wants attention. My vet told me that there’s really nothing to be concerned about unless it turns into more of a wheezing sound because then it means that there could be something going on with her respiratory system. That’s how she got the nickname little Miss Twiggy Piggy.

They said a guy brought them in and said he went to clean a house cause the people left and they left these two behind. So the pound kept them for ten days just in case the people came back for them. The pound was cold in there too. Her lungs are clear but she sounds congested sometimes. He put her on liguid Clavamox for fourteen days. He said she might have gotten a very mild case of kennel cough. It really sounds like little pig noises. Just wondered if the toy ones just make sounds like this? Thanks Randi
