My Maltipoo has trouble inhaling through nose. How can I help her?

Question

Hello! I have a 8-9 year old Maltipoo. She has been having a bit of trouble inhaling through her nose. She also has not been able to get comfortable. I cannot take her to the vet so I am wondering what I can/should do for her. Thank you! Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Small (up to 22lb) | Female | spayed | 8 lbs

Hi there and thank you for using pet coach to address your concern. Based on your description i would suspect these symptoms could be due to an allergy, upper respiratory infection, dental disease, nasal foreign body or tumor. I would treat this as an allergy or respiratory infection amd place her in the bathroom with the hot water running so that she is in the steam to help relieve any congestion. If this does not help, I would recommend bringing her in to a veterinarian so that the most appropriate treatment can be recommended. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns.
