Placing fingers …
Placing fingers over nostrils helps for my Elkhound who does this, as well. mine is doing it a lot more frequently though, so I am getting her checked out, because some dogs can develop collapsing trachea. Mine had a trach tube inserted during a recent surgery (benign skin growth removed) as a precaution, and now it is happening more often, ever since. The soft palate might be inflamed or swollen, and I am not taking any chances, due to mine’s increase in frequency of this.

I took this video to my vet & she said she is 100% certain its a reverse sneeze and not to be worried. It stopped happening about a week after I took this video. I got my dog from the pound, so he probably just had some allergy or a cold. The reverse sneeze occured when dozer initially went outside (temperature change) or when he sniffed something dusty on the ground. He doesn’t do it anymore, I’m glad I got it on video for the entertainment value alone. If your dog does this, it’s okay!
My Rat Terrier mix …
My Rat Terrier mix (possibly part Boston or Bulldog) does this as well although his reverse sneezing sounds different. Someone eventually told me that if you press your hand over their nose (or press their nostrils if they’ll let you) for a few seconds it will stop the reverse sneezing. I know that sounds weird but it is just for a few seconds so it doesn’t hurt them but it does work (for my dog at least!)
my Orson does the …
my Orson does the exact same thing, i couldnt find another dog on here that had a reverse sneeze like his until Dozer.
Been told it could be from allergies, like something getting in their nose. next time it happens try rubbing his throat, it’s supposed to calm them down and help it end sooner.
