Moisture when sneezing?

Postby underlashes » Sat Mar 06, 2021 10:12 am

Hey all, my northern, Meatball was sneezing a bit more than usual and I took him out to check on him and found a piece of stuck shed inside his nose, which is what I assumed was causing the issue. I got a little more concerned when he then sneezed with his head resting in my hand and I noticed a drop of moisture come out of his stuck shed nostril (it seemed to just be water). So my question is, is some moisture normal when sneezing and I just never was up in his face enough to know? Or is this something I should be concerned about?

He's showing no other signs of URI which is my biggest concern, but i'm still paranoid :( :cry:

As long as it isn't excessive it's fine.

Great, thank you! He's been acting normal since, so I will keep an eye on him just in case but I'm glad it seems like nothing to be concerned about.

Northerns seldom suffer RIs unless conditions are deplorable which I seriously doubt yours are!
They're the most tolerable of them all, and just about indestructible!
