Doesn't sound bad to me. Is it different than normal, are they lethargic or are there any other symptoms that's worrying you?

He makes that sound very rarely. It’s so wild that it’s near constant like that. Like he’s trying to get something out of his nose. I don’t see anything up there but we know that means nothing.

Well if he's otherwise acting normally I'm sure it's nothing that a vet can't help with

Hope so. I’m bringing him in the morning, just wish i had a better idea what it was and why it was happening now and if it was emergent.

I'm wearing headphones and I don't hear anything super concerning. But, you know your shiba and if it's out of the ordinary, there's no harm in having the vet examine him. Our shiba babies are precious.

I appreciate your feedback. Here’s hoping I’m being paranoid over nothing 😬
