True or False: Dogs sneeze to let other dogs know they want to play.
Answer: True
Dog sneezes are common, normal and super cute! But why do they sneeze? There are many reasons that dogs sneeze, including communication, allergies or other health problems. But more often than not, a sneeze is a way to let other dogs or people know that they’re ready to play! A sneeze communicates that they’re excited, having fun and are inviting others to play.
If the sneezing is frequent, accompanied by nasal discharge or your dog has other behaviors or symptoms (e.g., pawing at their nose, bleeding, appear to be in pain), contact your veterinarian right away.
