Snoring

WatsonBoy · 03-17-2011, 02:10 PM

This may sound like a weird question... but I will ask anyway. We boarded Watson for the first time a couple of weeks ago for a week. Ever since we got him back, he has been snoring like crazy. He had never snored before! Is this something that I should be concerned about? Or could it be something to do with allergies (spring has hit Memphis, the pollen is a little high)?

snoring is quite normal unless he awakes sneezing or acts like something is blocking his airway.

If the pollen count is high, he could quite possibly have seasonal allergies. Not that unusual in animals. Hope it doesn't last long!

Gosh I don't know what it's like to not have a hound (or a husband) who doesn't snore. Rosco didn't snore for a long time but then one day he started snoring. I've noticed it more when he's in a really deep sleep (I've noticed the same thing with our other two hounds as well). I wouldn't be too worried about it unless it keeps you awake at night. And if you want, we can trade. I'll take one snoring hound over three snoring hound and a snoring husband.....and they wonder why I have insomnia!

The dogs and I don't want to move to Memphis.

Well, he doesn't snore loudly. And it's only when he's just starting to fall asleep at night. So I guess I can handle that

. My dear husband, however, snores alllll nightttt longggg. Maybe I should put husband in the crate and puppy in bed... hmmm...

Vb3 -- Memphis is great! Unless you don't like crime.... or heat... or traffic... or pollen...

I second that! Good luck! Hopefully it's just allergies.

Boomer doesn't snore, but my hubby does. I told him this evening that Boomer and I took a vote, and dad has to sleep on the couch.

Did I miss a post somewhere about you moving to Memphis?

How come you don't want to move?

vb3 is my husband and in a previous post I offered to trade Watsonboy one dog for three and a husband who all snore.
