Hi there and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to address your concern. Based on your description, there may be something stuck in the mouth such as a foreign object or a sore. I would recommend having a veterinarian examine Rocky so that the most appropriate diagnostic and treatment recommendations can be made. I hope this helps guide you in the right direction. Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further!
