Short Palate

Hi;  I have a one yr. old Pekingese.  My vet told me she has a short palate that causes her to do reverse sneezing.  About a week ago she was doing the reverse sneezing real hard and the next day she was blowing white foam out her noes and her nose was runny.  She was very tired.  The vet put her on a pill which has helped her a little but not to much.  I think she might of pulled something up in her nose when she was sneezing.  Is there anything that can be done for a short palate.  When dogs have a reverse sneezing problem can this cause other problem, like pulling things up into their nose.  Thanks you, Fern

Hi Jo:  Thanks, but to check palates especially short one they need to be under at the time.  My vet. checked hers when she was spay because she was doing the inverted sneezing at that time.  She is now on anbitoic and is doing much better.  We are sure she pulled something (probably food) up in her nose and got a infection.  Just something I will have to keep a close eye on and hope it never happens again.  I checked with a lot of sites and it seems most dogs have problem with to long of palates instead of to short of ones.  I have make the breeder aware that she should not breed dogs with this problem as she did not think it was a health problem before but it sure is.  Thanks, Fern
