Hiccups are usually a result of irritated or inflamed diaphragmatic muscles in the abdomen. Usually some external irritant is involved, as food Allergies or even some medications. Short of going to a physician for an anti-nausea medication like Phenergan or Compazine, there's not much over the counter of any real help. Some people find that repeated cycles of taking in deep breaths and holding for 30 second cycles may be helpful.

Hiccups in Staffordshire bull terrier pups?
Hiccups are very common in all puppies and are actually quite normal. Puppies get hiccups when they eat and drink as they tend to ingest large quantities of air which then triggers hiccups. Common hiccuping is normal until dogs are about 8 months of age. There is also nothing that you can really do to stop hiccups in a puppy, other than having the puppy rest until the hiccups are gone.
Can you make yourself hiccup on command?
No. Hiccups are caused by the nerves controlling the diaphragm becoming unsynchronised (basically, all of the parts going at different times); if a person could find a consistent and simple way to cause hiccups, it is possible they could get hiccups on demand, but this is unlikely given the random nature of hiccups.
