Strange Behaviour from Min Pin

I have had my 9yr old Min Pin mix Tyson for about a month and a half. A weird thing happened last night while we were in bed. He started swallowing and licking (sort of like he was going to vomit) but then jumped off the bed and started sucking on the edge of the area carpet fringe. I got up and left the room with him and he went to drink some water. We went back to bed but he was restless and got up again and started sucking on one of my shirts that was hanging on the doorknob. Has anyone ever heard of this behaviour? I think he had something caught in his throat and maybe was sucking to try to swallow it down. He eventually settled down (after 3 am!!) and he is fine this morning. I just found it very weird since I had a dog for 14 years before him and she never did anything like that. And he never has chewed or licked anything in the house since we got him. Hopefully tonight will be a better night's sleep!
