My dog has been reverse sneezing since a puppy, but lately (he's 2) it has been far worse. He is now also sneezing like a human especially when going outside. He shakes a lot, especially his back leg. His chest also sounds very wheezy and he's snoring more than usual. He's a shih Tzu crossed with miniature bichon

This could be an allergy so I would recommend starting an antihistamine to see if this helps. If there is no improvement or he worsens, I would have him seen by a veterinarian for further diagnostic and treatment recommendations. ( https://www.petcoach.co/canigive/dog/benadryl/ )
