Pet's info: Dog | Rottweiler | Male | unneutered | 4 months and 27 days old | 55 lbs

5 month old Rottie that snorts and snores. Does not have a nasal discharge but his eyes have heavy discharge every day.Sounds like he is under water when he sleeps. What can be the cause?

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! If this is a new thing then he could have allergies or an upper respiratory tract infection (URI). Most URIs are viral and run their course in 2 weeks. If he has always snored then it is likely normal for him. I would have him checked out by your Vet regarding the eye discharge which could be allergies or a conjunctivitis. I wish you the best
