boxer gets the Hicups

[boxerflash]

Occaisonally upon waking or becoming excited Flash has a case of the hicups. They seem quite powerful but they don't seem to cause him any discomfort.

Has anyone's boxer had the hicups, is this a vet worthy problem?

[KeeperBoy]

Keepers has never had them, but Boo gets hiccups from time to time. She got them a ton as a puppy and seems to have outgrown them, at least a bit. I don't imagine it's a problem so much as just a little annoyance, just like with people.

it's not uncommon at all for a young puppy to get the hicups. It's pretty funny to watch to i have to admit

[Luther90]

luther use to get the hicups all the time, but now it's less frequent. I wouldn't worry too much about it

[jena]

jena gets them when shes eatten her food to fast or when she drinks to much more than any over time yes its funny to see

Haha Copper gets them too. I was alittle worried at first but it doesn't seem to bother him.

[BooBooOne]

Yes my boxer pup gets the hiccups all the time. When shes excited, after she drinks to fast and sometimes just when shes laying ther. I asked the vet and he said it was totally normal as long as it dosent cause any vomiting

Xena gets the hiccups also when she is excited or startled. lol It is the cutest thing!

[bruinsBoxers]
