The noise she makes is normal ,allot of dogs to that. If she sleeps in the room with you maybe you should put her in another room.

If she is sleeping on her back, turn her over. And if it is a huge problem, you may want to have your vet check her soft palette (the soft part on the top of the back of the throat). If it is elongated, the vet can perform a simple surgery to remove this extra tissue, thus greatly reducing the snoring. Also, have the vet check her nose, they can get what is called stenotic nares, which is when their nostrils close when the breath in. It can also be fixed by a vet with a fairly simple surgery.
I have French Bulldogs that sleep in bed with me every night, and I have just learned to live with it (but I use earplugs sometimes).

Is she snoring?Maybe theres a blockage in her nose?Have her checked out if she is a longer nosed one..
If she is a pugnosed little one,they often snore.I love it,sounds so soothing and comfortable,like a cat purring.What is there to be annoyed about?The sound of a loving life form that is part of your family?Learn to appreciate it.
When the snoring stops in my house,thats when I get worried...

Try buying some Kong toys and treats to stuff it with. It keeps them busy for a while. It's also a good treat and gets them tired too. ;-)

Not so close to your pet, not really into dogs.. its an annoyance.
If its not an annoyance, its a furry friend wanting some attention. You decide.

You'll get used to it ,both my dogs and husband snore and I would feel something was wrong if it were quiet.
