We have two sister pekingnese pups.One is fat and gets sleep,the other is thinner and her eyes are always heavy.Observing her she gets few minute knapps.They play normal,eats regular and is very loving.She looks exhausted!Please help,they also purr like cats and snores loud.We know about snorting but purring?:confused:

Hi,
Your pets sound wonderful. Do you have a Vet?
The one that is not sleeping might need to see the Vet. Sometimes, a chemical imbalance in the body might be causing the sleeplessness. A low Red Blood Cell count can cause lose of strength, weakness, and there are other things that can cause it as well.
It might not be anything, but I really believe in having pets checked out by their Vet when something "weird" starts.
My wife and I lost our 12 yr old Molly, housedog, just 2 weeks ago. She passed away at home with many different complications. The Vets did all they could, but an enlarged spleen finally caused her death.
I do wish you and your dogs the best.

They're adorable and extremely excellent house dogs!We've gone through several breeds and end up giving them to familys that can't afford pure breeds.We're truckdrivers and it takes special dogs to constantly travel.The last vet charged 160.00 to diagnose a maybe respiratory infection and encouraged getting them fixed!We love these Chybooty girls as we call them.Sorry about your Molly!Try looking into pekingnese I have the peoples phone number we're extremely loved!Thanks for advice:)
