His name is CJ. He also has the hiccups! Seriously who doesn't like a hiccuping puppy?

Note: Dog hiccups are normally harmless and rarely serious. Basically, the source is spasms of the diaphragm. This can be caused by excitement, eating too fast, irritants or stress.

 Puppies that hiccup, in general do so first thing in the morning after waking up, after naps, after eating, or after too much excitement. Some puppies may even hiccup while sleeping!

Sources of Dog Hiccups

 Dog hiccups are so common some veterinarians think that they are “growing pains” some puppies must endure during the process of physically and mentally maturing. In general, the episodes begin to decrease as they get older, and totally disappear by the time the puppy is 8-months to 1-year old.(Source)

Do NOT give dogs human medicines for curing hiccups without proper guidance from a vet. Such medications can harm your dog.
