My dog keeps sneezing and shaking his head. His ears were cold earlier. And now he has started opening his mouth a little and shutting it. Is it possible that he has a cold?

I would recommend taking Chief to a veterinarian I am concerned he has allergies and concerned about a potential ear infection. I would bring him to a veterinarian for a physical examination. Thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
