You spelled it just right! The discharge does look like it's clear, so it could be allergy related like your vet suggested earlier. Seeing if your vet can prescribe a medication to treat allergies may help improve his symptoms. If they continue, or the coughing/discharge worsens, additional examination or an X-ray to check the lungs and chest may be beneficial in determining the problem. Hope max gets feeling better fast!

If it's just clear liquid that may be normal, but if there's any color to it that could be a sign of an infection. Occasional sneezing or reverse sneezing can be normal as well, but if it's happening a lot I would have her checked out by your vet.
