Is there a way to get your dog to stop snoring?

Question by blondechick89: Is there a way to get your dog to stop snoring?
I have a 3 pound chihuahua. She is 3 years old and is so loud at snoring. I was wondering is this normal? Is there a way to get her where she doesn't snore as loud? It's not a loud snore where you can hear it throughout the entire house, but you can hear it over the television and its gets distracting when I am doing homework. I feel bad because I have to constantly wake her up.

There really isn't unless there's some underlying health reason for her to snore. She may have minor throat deformities that are making it hard for her to breath when she's asleep. Sometime, surgery can correct it. She could also have allergies or nasal drip. She could also just be a dog that snores. Usually it's flat faced breeds (like Bulldogs or Boston Terriers) but any dog can snore.
Unfortunately, unless there's a health issue that can be resolved, it may just be something you have to live with.
