My 10 yo cockapoo keeps sneezing. He will sneeze so loud his entire body shakes. No coughing just sneezing. The vet told me to give him Benadryl. Is there anything else I can do?

Hello and thank you for contacting PetCoach. Frequent sneezing is usually related to upper airways infection, irritation or an allergy. If Jeter keeps sneezing frequently, and there has not been any improvement to Benadryl, it would be worth trying stronger anti-allergic medication (for example steroids) or / and a course of antibiotics. If this treatment does not make any difference, the next step would be checking the nasal cavity with a camera.
