    Yes, the best remedy in the world: Get that little bugger to the Vet.!

    Best case senario: Doggie has allergies (very common in poodles)

    easily treated.

    Worst case senario: Little guy has late stage of heartworms

    (congestive heart caused by the worms starting to block his heart makes him chuff and sneeze).

    I don't mean to worry/scare you, but go soon just in case!

    Since you don't know the cause, get the dog to the vet. Once you know what it is, then you can treat the symptoms with things like benedryl etc.

    probably an upper respiratory infection or allergies. take the dog to the vet and get the correct diagnosis and medication

    Is there a Vet. in this room ? .. No ? .. Sorry, buddy, you will have to take him to a Vet and have him checked out. Good Luck! :)

    A SMALL dose of Children's Benadryl may help if it's allergies.

    Source(s): Experience - the vet reccommended it.
