My puppy (almost 4 monthes) has been having hickups... is this nornal?

Recently he has been getting the hickups. Is there something wrong? im worried! please help!
Answers:
Our 1 month old puppy does that. She does it whenever she gets overly exited or has unregular breathing like if she was running or something. I guess it's just like humans.
he probably get's to excited when he eats and that causes him to eat fast im assuming.
Puppies quite commonly get hiccups. There is really nothing you can do for a puppy with hiccups, other than have him rest quietly until the hiccups are gone. If you find certain circumstances such as extreme excitement seem to trigger the hiccups, you can try to avoid those types of situations.

Not to worry. All pups get the hiccups. They get air trapped in their stomachs so they get the hiccupps. As it gets older it will stop.
yes thats normal just pat him on the back and he should get rid of them faster.
Well my puppy did that. He turned out ok but i don't no ur puppy can be different. He should be fine tho.
no its perfectly normal. my pup does it all the time. its just a muscle spasm in the diaphragm. so just don't worry.
if the dog is still hickuping than take it too the docter
Don't worry. My Sierra has this when she eats too fast which in 99% of the time. *LOL*
That's normal for a puppy they are so existed to be home!!!
yes that happens to my dog all the time ussually my dog has to throw up or his stomach is upset
Yes it is normal. Their lungs are growing and expanding and it causes hiccups. It is a good sign! Not to worry.
