I just watched the video after googling if it’s normal for chi’s to snore… I’m a new dog owner first ever in my 55 yrs and she is my therapy for real! Ihad London Paris Millan for 2 years & she is my 💗very spoiled, ornery , bossy & funny as hell!! I found that she does communicate with me by snorting or grunting when she wants something😊

Haha! Looked this up while my chi was snoring on the sofa next to me. I watched the video, and the audio came through a speaker. Really freaked my little Pinto out! She stopped snoring, but went right back to sleep when audio was off.

My Chihuahua is the same. Point the phone in his direction for a snap shot and he turns away as if by magic but boy, he can snore some.

I looked this up because my chihuahuas snore all the time……and if I do anything in an attempt to film/record it.. they wake up. I was curious if anyone had footage lol. I have a bro/sis chihuahua duo. The male snores up a storm and the female has the greatest smile I have seen on any dog EVER… they don’t perform for cameras. They seem to know shit, I pull out my phone and they turn all charm off completely. Then again I do something similar

This is the first time I have seen so many people with a chihuahua have the same breathing, snoring issue. It always worried me because I thought she had something wrong. After listening to the above video, she literally does the same thing. I have a 8 year old long haired apple head chihuahua and she is my best friend! So glad to see and have closure that I do not need to be taking her to the vet but just know she is happy.

I have 2 of these adorable babies. Evie is 13 months and Beau is 4 months. I was extremely worried about Evie with the reverse sneezing as if never heard of it before. Beau hasn’t started yet. Evie snores sooo loud! I wondered whether her trachea was smaller but after reading all these lovely comments, I’m not worried anymore. She is such a joy and so loving that we decided to get Beau to keep her company. I love watching the 2 of them playing. They always amuse me. I’ll be keeping an ear out for when Beau starts snoring now. I’ll just enjoy watching them and worry no more.

My little chunky chi we call her baby. My fiance thought she had something wrong with her. After reading all the comments on here I can now laugh when I hear her snore and grunt. She also carry’s her stuffed baby around while snorting! I would be lost without her! ❤️❤️

My Peanut makes so much noise that he wakes me up. Now I have new dog that does not make any noise at all. His name Rocky and he is only 12 weeks old. I can’t wait till they both start making the noise that Peanut makes.

Our Arnie a 2yr old choc merle stunner, is just the same! He only stops to bum burp ! Gives me a run for my money ..,… apparently ! Quite honestly I could sit there and watch him sleep all night . His contentment and utter relaxed look on his face are a joy to watch. Never in a million yrs did I expect to fall head over heels and heels back over head for a Chi. He’s not even mine ….. He’s the wife’s dog!

My family is a new chihuahua family, too. My daughter had been dying for one, but we weren’t interested in a third dog. We already had a shelti and a schnauzer. An adoption opportunity fell in our lap almost two months ago, and we just couldn’t resist. Our kids’ love for dogs made me so happy, we brought home a four year old male, Coco. Very much overweight when we got him…13 lbs!!!…but we’ve gotten him down to 9.5, and the vet wants him at 8 lbs. He’ll get there because, despite how lazy he is, my daughter and the dogs get him up and moving. Coco settled in nicely literally day one. Every day has been a riot with him. The reverse sneezing!!! Ahhhhh, yes! He had those the first week or so. Our schnauzer boy has those fairly often so we knew what they were. Once he got completely comfortable, they went away. The snoring…my goodness. He snorts in his sleep very intermentedly, and the first time we heard it, we thought someone farted and didn’t excuse themself!!! Now, we’re used to it. Still sounds like farts, and we continue to get a good laugh. So, yes, we now have a chihuahua!!! I didn’t even like the breed prior to our adoption. Now, we love Coco so much, I’m changing my mind…lol!!!

I just adopted a 4.5 year old 5lb long haired Chihuahua she is,full breed Chihuahua only have had a couple days now she was so anxious the very first day but she is adjusting so fast..she wants to eat all the time wondered what I may feed her to curb her appetite? She also snores which doesn’t bother me because my previous Chihuahua snores also…but this one seems to grunt like a little piggy so much during the day..wonder if that may ease up the longer we have her and becomes comfortable with her new home after nearly 5 years? We love her with all our hearts so as long as we know it’s normal for some Chihuahuas we are fine with it. She’s always looking for food even after she’s ate we call her our little piggy vacuum cleaner..lol

My Scoch is so adorable. I’ve always wanted a chihuahua, we’ve had her for over a year now, and wouldn’t know what to do without her. She is one of the smartest dogs I’ve ever had, and I’ve had many throughout the years, but she also can be very stubborn.
She also snores very loud.
Is it normal for them to sound congested. Like I said, never having a chihuahua before, I don’t know if this is normal sounding or not.

my very sweet, intelligent, (and quite bossy…lol) Chloe, is approximately 9 years old now. I adopted her from a shelter about 8 years ago now…and I must say that she saved me just as much as I saved her! When she is in a deep, peaceful sleep, she snores REALLY loudly. I find it incredibly cute and endearing, and I have no trouble sleeping through it…I guess I am just totally used to it. Lol. of course When my ex would snore I wouldn’t hesitate to kick or smack him awake. he would say, well your dog is snoring too, why don’t you wake her up?? I would always reply, because she is cute…you are not! Lol.

My sweet Chloe is only 3.5lbs she makes very loud grunt noises when she feels comfortable or just is trying to relax. Its like a grunting sound that is so loud like a very deep sigh or breath.
