It kind of sounds like the noise that a car makes when the engine is sputtering or screeches to a halt. Pomeranian sneezes are especially entertaining. Tommy the Pomeranian, Tumblr’s office dog, seemed to have been struck by the [urge to tap dance](https://vimeo.com/55550501 "undefined") during one attack. But none of these animal sneezes will be as epic as the baby panda sneeze that scared its mama, which has been watched more than 218 million times. ### See Adorable Puppies Shaking Their Fur  Annie - 7 weeks, Cavalier King Charles Spaniel Carli Davidson  Annie - 7 weeks, Cavalier King Charles Spaniel Carli Davidson  Koda - 20 weeks, Pomeranian Carli Davidson  Koda - 20 weeks, Pomeranian Carli Davidson  Hans - 12 weeks, Boxer Pit Mix Carli Davidson  Hans - 12 weeks, Boxer Pit Mix Carli Davidson  Cloud - 8 weeks, Shar Pei Carli Davidson  Cloud - 8 weeks, Shar Pei Carli Davidson  Josie - 12 weeks, Boxer Carli Davidson  Josie - 12 weeks, Boxer Carli Davidson  Meatball - 10 weeks, Pit Bull Carli Davidson  Meatball - 10 weeks, Pit Bull Carli Davidson  Vincent - 8 weeks, Dachshund Carli Davidson  Vincent - 8 weeks, Dachshund Carli Davidson ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3980491/pomeranian-roux-sneeze/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3980491/pomeranian-roux-sneeze/"},"headline":"This Dog Has the Weirdest Sneeze","datePublished":"2015-07-31T18:09:28.000Z","dateModified":"2026-05-11T04:47:11.033Z","description":"Adorable, but weird","url":"https://time.com/3980491/pomeranian-roux-sneeze/","keywords":["Newsfeed","animals"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Olivia B.
