Yes, Millie used to get them loads! She seemed to grow out of it by about 5-6 months though. She even had them in the car on the way home - OH had just gone into the garage to pay for fuel and she started, I had no idea what was going on, initially thought she was going to be sick! Typically, she'd stopped by the time he got back!  :shades:

Poppy got them all the time for the first few weeks. She seems to have stopped now ant nearly 5 months! I was worried at first and used to watch her like a hawk when she was hiccuping! :005: Not sure what I thought might happen!

My old boy Merlin used to get them all his life and The pups I have get them as well, although they do seem to have grown out of it mostly now, but still get them on occasion.  ;)

Harvey used to always be hiccuping. Hardly ever does it now though, unless he's been greedy and eaten too quick  :005:
