Maybe it has a stuffy nose or just nervous or horny.

Question by questionfordad: Why does my dad make loud snoring noises sporadically when he is awake?
My dad is diabetic, has high blood pressure, congestive heart failure, and has been hospitalized for two strokes. Lately, when I got to visit him, he breaths heavily- while awake- and then produces a loud snoring sound that cause some of his body to tremble as well. It sounds just like a snore but he is not asleep.

Hey may be a shallow breather. I do this too sometimes because in the past I used to breath shallow and am still paying for it. Occasionally, I will suddenly take a deep breath with a snore coming as an effect of my deep breath.

Maybe he is catching his breath?

I read an answer on here saying that snoring is caused by vibrations in the soft pallate from the person not being able to breath through the nose properly or from having inflamed adenoids.
Well why does this not affect them when they are awake?

I have a 6 year old doxie I adopted from a shelter. She was chubby when I got her, but seems to have gained more weight. In addition to the obvious back concern, she has started making a rather loud snoring sound, not only when she sleeps — all the time. It seems to have gotten worse as she’s gained weight.
Could her weight be causing this? And, also any suggestions of what the best food is to help a dog lose weight? I’ve been trying several different things — nothing works!
