Hi, thanks for using PetCoach! Yogy is super cute! Yogy appears to be a puppy? He looks way younger than almost 2 years old? Unfortunately Yogy is a mixed breed dog and we can only guess as to what breed he is made of. I would guess a chihuahua or min pin mix. Hiccups are very common in puppies and go away on their own. Puppies out grow hiccups and they rarely occur in adult dogs. You can purchase an over the counter DNA kit, but they are not very accurate and are more for fun. http://www.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?pcatid=33924 I hope this helps and I wish you and Yogy the best!
