QuestionI have a 1 year old female Dachshund that started making this snorting noise. Is it normal or do I have something to worry about? I know she scares me. She acts like she can't breath. Please let me know. Thank You
AnswerSnorting could be a sign of congestion - are there any other signs? Look for nasal discharge, trouble breathing, wheezing noises, gets out of breath after exercising, etc. I would get her to your vet and have her checked. Snorting and acting like she has trouble breathing can be a sign of several things and no sense in taking any risks when a trip to the vet will sort it out. I hope she feels better soon!
