Snoring Puppy?!?!

[Bonny]

On July 7, 2007, Missy a tri colored Australian Cattle pup entered my life. What a joy she is. But something is going on when she sleeps. She plays hard during the day & is really tired out when evening comes. She sleeps on the sunroom floor next to my bed. I have heard her snoring very loudly. Is this normal? She is now 4 months old.

My yellow Labrador (Rita) also snores... it is the funniest thing! :p

Hearing my Mickey snoring in the night is sweet sound.

Both Duke and Champ snore on occasion. I haven't heard Chopper do it yet.

Some dogs just do snore, it's nothing unusual. Sunday afternoons at my folks' house, when I was a kid often ended up with three sets of snores coming from the living room:
1. Dad, in his rocking chiar "watching the game"
2. Ma, on the couch "reading the newspaper"
3. Freckles, the St. Bernard, "supervising"

It was pretty funny!

Oh yes, quite normal! All my dog snore periodically, but our RB Angus used to snore almost all the time...a very sweet sound to me:D

Do you have any pictures of Missy?

my black lab snores so loud, I can hear her downstairs now :D

Both my pitbull and my lab snore while they sleep, its really funny. I dont think there is anything wrong with it, mostly its a throat noise, not actually coming from the nose. Your Aus Cattle pup sounds cute, what color is she? Any pics? Welcome to pettalk by the way :)

There are dogs who DON'T snore?

Gosh, didn't know they existed!

My Raven girl used to snore a lot as a baby. She doesn't snore as much as she used to, but she was the first dog I've had who snored. I actually miss her little puppy snores, it was so cute :D.

Oddly enough, my cat snores louder than my two dogs sometimes... hehe

But yup it's perfectly normal :D

Thank you everyone for answering the snoring question. Missy is the only dog we have ever had that snores. :D She also gets the hiccupps. Does anyone else have a dog that gets the hiccupps? She is black over most of her body with wooly black hair. She has a white collar of fur around her neck & down her chest area which is soft. She has butterscotch coloring on her eye brows & down on her paws which are white with the butterscotch bands above the white. She reminds us of a little bear & loves to splash in the mud puddles, & play ball. I love Australian Shepherds & she is a sweetheart for sure. Thank you for the welcome. I have been here over the last couple of years off & on. Like everyone here my heart belongs to the unconditional love of a companion canine.
