Yes they can. Mostly because of the same reasons humans do. The theory of evolution postulates that both humans and dogs (and all land dwelling life) come from the same amphibious ancestor. The involuntary motions associated with a hiccup are critical to amphibians. This is because when an amphibian re-enters the water, it needs to begin drawing water through its gills (inhaling) while simultaneously closing the pathway to its lungs...a hiccup!
When my dog eats too fast he starts hiccuping. it is actually very cute and my dog wonders whats happening to him when he gets them :)
AnswerYes. My Bichon Frise had them off and on as a puppy. I have no doubt it's because she ate and then played hard (loved us to throw the ball in the house.) I use to rub her chest and tummy and eventually the hiccups went away. AnswerMy dog does..Its quite funny.We don't know why dogs get hiccups, or for that matter what causes them in humans. They appear to be a temporary malfunction of the diaphragm, in which the diaphragm contracts suddenly and unexpectedly, expelling air from the lungs.
I don't think so but seriously, you could of just looked that up. (I didn't actually look it up.)

Yes, dogs can get hiccups. It's actually quite common.
Of course! I have a slightly chubby Great Dane who gets the hiccups a lot. He makes a quiet noise every time and his tummy jiggles.
yep. a dog who hiccups is usually healthy. it's just a natural cause that animals and humans have. -from-Taylor
if dogs have a diaphragm under there lungs then yes they can hiccup. hiccups are cause from spasms of the diaphragm.
Yes,it is normal for dogs for having hiccups
yes dogs can get hicupps, But they don't usally last long maybe 4 to 5 min. or less
Yes they can.
It scares them. When they hear you hiccup they think of it as a sign that you are angry with them or don't want to be around them. They hear a wierd noise and they get scared. Also, dogs can sense when something is happening and they take it the wrong way. Many dogs that get hiccups also hide themselves.
Dogs puff out their cheeks when they need to cough but it doesn't come out right or when they "burp" or "hiccup", except it's a little different when they do it. I don't know how they do it. Like we do?
