My 4-week puppy has milk from nose and isn't pooping. Is it serious?

Question

My 4 week old chihuahua he ate this morning his milk replacement and he poop but after his second meal he hasn’t poop again and when he sneezed milk is coming out from his nose and some bubbles from his mouth. I think maybe he’s doing that because he didn’t poop yet but I want to make sure is nothing serious. Pet's info: Dog | Chihuahua (Long Coat) | Male | 1 month old

It is okay if they don't poop with every meal. I am concerned that the milk came out of his nose. I would make sure the roof of his mouth looks normal and he doesn't have a cleft palate. If he is labored breathing or stops eating, I would strongly recommend to have your vet take a look at him to ensure he doesn't have any genetic abnormalities or aspiration pneumonia. Keep a close eye on him. I hope this helps!
