He has lungs just like you. He breathes second hand smoke. His lungs will get screwed up just like yours.
Nothing like giving you dog a death sentence that you chose for yourself.

Dogs have allergies like humans
If its bad for the human than it has to bad for the dog
My Pit always sneezed when my husband smoked inside so he now goes outside. I'd say try to smoke outside.

Of course inhaling second hand smoke will affect your dog's health. He is a passive smoker in exactly the same way as people who live in the same house as a smoker.
From what you say he seems particularly vulnerable to cigarette smoke so try not to smoke in the house.
Better still try to give it up altogether so that both you and your dog will be healthier.

2d hand smoke should be volatile, yet not continuously. per chance ask if she is prepared to smoke outside extremely of contained in the position the residing house is enclosed (it truly is what my sister does with my brother-in-regulation.) My mom smoked the completed time I lived with her, and now i'm in my mid 30's with out subject matters. So it should be volatile, yet not continuously.

Smoke causes problems for everyone breathing it in, try smoking outside for a bit and if his symptoms go then you'll have to stay out there.

Of course it will affect him. Its still passive smoking even if he is a dog. I admit I smoked in front of my dog but I felt so guilty when she kept sneezing everytime I lit up I stopped doing it in front of her. Its your choice to smoke not theirs.

Smoke bothers all living creatures. It affects their lungs just as it does humans, why do you think Zoo's banned smoking around animal cages.

Yes - we see a lot more bronchitis, and indeed skin disease, in dogs living in smoking households.
Give it up, people.
I am a Vet, by the way
