Yes it is possible for any aerosolized product can cause irritation of your pets airway causing reverse sneezing. Try to lay off the candle for a few weeks and we if the reverse sneezing resolves. Not every pet will react to candles in this way, so it’s always best to do a little deductive reasoning when determining the cause for your pet symptoms, especially if he never had this issue before. If the candle isn’t the cause, then it is likely just an environmental allergy. As long as the reverse sneezing isn’t frequent and impeding on Bruno’s quality of life, we generally don’t have to treat these pets. However if things worsen it’s best to get him seen by your vet for further care. Best wishes with Bruno moving forward. Take care.
