Ours has tummy issues so for us when Nemo begs for food we are always thrilled, means he feels good :-) Ours also suffers with the collapsed trachea which I guess is common in Poms(or so I have heard) when he gets super excited he makes the goose sound which is not fun to hear but he gets so super excited sometimes he breathes like a maniac so I just pet him til he calms down
My pure Pom has the Trachea problem and I thought we were going to have him put down recently because he was having so much difficulty breathing. He’s 14 and it really started to get much worse in this hot and humid weather. He was panting and honking like a goose for almost 2 days, but we got it under control with medicine. Hopefully he’ll make it a while longer.
