Almost lost one!

Ok, How does one get something out of a dog's throat that they are choking on?

One of my pups. See picture decided to swallow a doggie biscuit without chewing. Pup started doing really strange things. I yelled for Ilona to help me. While I tried doing hmmm jerk ups? She stuck her hand down his throat. After a couple of minutes I was able to work it far enough up that she could grab it and pull it out.

Anyway I know how to make a person cough up something. Learned that a long time ago. I used the same principal on the pup. It worked so it must be correct. Pup is alive and well and now for the time being chewing up the biscuits.

  1. Aren't puppies fun?! I am a volunteer foster parent for the SPCA and recently had two puppies in my care. They were 5 weeks old when I got them and I took them back on Tuesday at 8 weeks of age. They were adopted the same day by one family. I'm so happy. I have no dog biscuit choking stories to share, but I did manage to take pictures of the cuties and put them on my blog.
