Hi!!
Chocking can happen to anyone at anytime with practicaly any item... the result is devestating for the families involved.
1. You can try, if the dog is small, to hold him by the two hind legs letting the head hang downwards. Open his mouth, pulled the tongue out and it is very pro-that the object that was instructing his throat will fall out.
2. In the case of bigger animals, put him with his head downwards on your arm or leg. Quickly clean the throat with your fingers and pull his tongue out. If he has difficulties breathing, after you have removed the foreign object, start artificial breathing.
3. When the dog chokes on food, place yourself behind the choking animal, raised him by his hind legs, embrace his waist allowing the head and shoulders to bend forward. Then close one hand, forming a fist which you will then grab with the other hand and place against the animal's abdomen, in between the belly and ribs. When applying pressure under the diaphragm, the air of the lungs compresses and comes out with force, making the piece of food that was stuck go shooting out.
4. Another procedure would be to put the animal lying down on his side, giving him a strong blow in between the shoulders. Move the tongue to the side with a spoon. Open his mouth and with your index and thumb remove the piece of food. It could be a simple case or something serious, which would put his life in danger.
Go to the veterinarian or animal center.
If asphyxia is imminent, buy a special cannula for such a use in pharmacies and softly introduce it into his throat solo that he can breathe and wait to be relieved.
If you are alone and you want to see where the object is, place the dog on his back against his legs.
Raise the head backwards and upwards holding its in as straight a line as possible. By the altar or wall of the neck, you can make a detailed exploration until you find the object which will appear to be like a small tumor.
Another thing that will help you if your dog's reaction when you pass your hand on that lump because it will hurt him. If you can try to move it upwards, toward the mouth and that way, you will be able to extract eight. If he offers resistance, you shouldn't force him.
Make sure you dog doesn't stop breathing and try to get help, by all means, from the veterinarian clinic.

What's it choking on? If you have to, put your fingers down her throat and dislodge it if she has something stuck!!!! I wouldn't think about even getting on the computer if my dogs were choking on something. I hope by the time you are reading this your dog is fine.
