Hi there
My English Springer spaniel pup that we collected yesterday has had hickups 5 times since we got him home.
Is it normal for puppys to get hickups this frequently ?
He is 8 weeks old and eating / drinking fine.

Regards

Just saw the post below ref hickups (done a search but spelt hickups different to other post)
Sorry.

Hi Bully

I'm sure it's been mentioned in the other post, pups do seem to get frequent hiccups, so it seems to be 'just a puppy thing', libby always seemed to have them when she was a small pup; but then she just outgrew them, I guess, now she NEVER hiccups at all?!?!

liberty :)

Ourgrowing them is the right term - I've noticed that pups who go through phases of hiccuping are actually also going through a growth spurt - time to check those collars!
