Why does my dog reverse sneeze?
My dog often sneezes in a strange manner. It almost sounds like he is sneezing in reverse! Why does this happen? Is it normal?

It's normal (or, not rare). It often happens after a vet inserts a breathing tube, irritating the esophogus (or something). My dog did it after being spayed. It went away for a couple months. Comes back occasionally. It may be a permanent injury (from that surgical procedure; it was the county pound. They do things fast. Just the reality of the place.). Or, it could be an allergy, just like I have a dry cough some days, an irritated throat.
