Why is My Dog Sneezing Uncontrollably? - Dog Health Vet Advice

If your dog develops sudden sneezing and you're asking why is my dog sneezing uncontrollably, the causes could be many. But, depending on the history and symptoms your dog is showing, it is likely these can be narrowed down without too much trouble

Sneezing is due to some irritation in the nasal cavity.
- Infection (viral, bacterial, fungal), masses, allergic disease (not a common cause), foreign bodies - something stuck up the nose

The signs and symptoms will vary depending on the cause of the sudden sneezing:
- Infection - not constant sneezing, more now and then with some sneezing fits. Also get snotty nasal discharge - liquid to very thick, white through to yellow-green - both nostrils
- Masses - similar to an infection, come on more slowly, the vet may be able to detect a lack of air flowing through one nostril if completely obstructed. Generally 1 sided discharge
- Allergic disease - not a common cause of sneezing, sneezing with clear, liquidy runny nose + some sneezing
- FB or chemical irritation - come on very suddenly, often can't stop sneezing, no discharge to start with if present a long time, then will get a nasal discharge. 1 nostril unless more than 1 FB. Clear - bloody discharge after a while + then pus if stays up nose. Grass seeds, awns or foxtails, also blades of grass, bits of stick or other vegetation most common culprits

Ok yes, I’m getting him checked out a bit more thoroughly next week. Thanks

I don't know if my dog had a seizure when he sneezed. He just sneezed uncontrollably and kind of shaking.

Thank you for this video. I'm going to go get my dog checked out again. They told me he had kennel cough 3-4 weeks ago. But there wasn't much they could do. So I'm going to take him to our main vet. He's now starting to sneeze all the time. Then cough every once in awhile the reverse cough.

I'm no vet but our dog sneezes a lot in certain seasons (late fall, SoCal). It happens to coincide with when I have allergies and I also sneeze a lot. It also mainly happens when we go outside for a walk - only happens rarely in the home. i think seasonal allergies can be pretty common in dogs. When googled it does come up a lot. I would assume that first if a dog has started sneezing a lot. Wouldnt go to vet unless discharge is coming out with the sneezing.

Whats the solution? Other than the vet?

My dog has been reverse sneezing on and off for a week now and it sounds like she grunting. The vet gave me nose drops for her but they dont seem to be working very good. It's not constant and she is acting normal.

I went mental with the febreeze and I think that might be case in mine dog.

I feel my dog is now having mini strokes from sneezing so much and reverse sneezing. He needs a nasal flush so he can breathe easier. Antibiotics are doing nothing. He has been on 3 different kinds. He sneezes yellow thick pus like mucus. He is getting his CT scan and Rhino done ...we are at emergency now. This is why I was wondering if this is all coming from his teeth.

Hi my dog has runny nose clear to white and reverse sneezing about 3 to 4x a day, she's been like this for almost a month, vet gave meds for respiratory dse and antibiotics, steroids, nothing happens. Now she is on antihistamine for 1 week, its the 3rd day, still has runny nose but fewer reverse sneezing...what can we do?

[jessicawabbitgould]

Hi Sir,
I took my dog on a walk a couple of days ago through a field and in the field he had several sneezing fits and has been having sneezing fits with breaks in between ever since, his nose is running from both nostrils and its clear although he has sneezed a few specks of blood there is no obvious obstruction but his one nasal passage looks swollen this is the 3rd day and he is still having some sneezing fits do you know what the likely cause and have any advice for me as I hate to see him uncomfortable. Thank you

My grandmother's dog is sneezing right now

[lesleygardiner]

my 12 year old springer suffers hay-fever on a walk tonight he had been sniffing and suddenly started sneezing.. it last full 30 minutes on our walk and he now has some blood when sneezing. he is fine in himself eating and drinking. could it be something in the nostril?

[laurenboni]

How can I tell foxtail in nose versus allergies? I realized we have been in foxtails, it is my mistake I did not know. But, all the vets near me have quoted me $3k to take a look at him for a foxtail. Which is...a bit too much. He reverse sneezes daily, and sneeze when outside (especially when kicking grass over his scent) and sneezes when he wakes up in the morning, after laying on his bed and blankets etc.

Can you please do a video on nasal tumors in dogs. I’m so worried my 14 year old 12 pound Yorkiepoodle has a nasal tumor or nasal cancer. Suddenly he seems to need to clear one side of his nostrils, he had bleeding from one of the nostrils, and while it’s not much blood, the bleeds are increasing in incidents. I give him Benadryl because I was told of the possibility of allergies. He seems to do better with the Benadryl but if I skip it he’s back to trying to clear that side of the nose. I’m not confused worried right now. What should I do?
