While I wait for a call back from our vet . . . vaccine reaction, "reverse sneeze" ?

While I wait for a call back from our vet, maybe someone here can offer up some advice ?

Pugsley is an 11-month old Pug/Beagle mix.
He's about 21.5 lbs.

Last Tuesday (so, 1 week ago exactly) he received an intranasal bordetella vaccine.

Since then, he has had these episodes where he makes this gaggy / snorty kind of noise. He stretches out his neck, his mouth is closed usually. His sides are heaving.

My husband said it sounds like he's got a case of the sniffles, and is trying to suck the snot back in. I think it sounds closer to the way our cat sounds when she's trying to expel a hairball. Either way, it is an awful noise.

He'll do the noise anywhere from 2 to 10-ish times in a row, several times a day. BUT - only at home, never when we're out walking or playing, not while he's eating, and not at night. Pretty much only when he's relaxed.

Any insight ?
