Be Aware: On animals that are choking.

Please update yourselves on if your pet is chocking. My lil pug loves food and we give her pretty big bones to eat to last more than 5 minutes. But on this one occassion today I was sitting with her and all over a sudden with the noises she was making I realized that she was choking. I quickly had to look up what to do. Meanwhile in that short space of time she could have died.This is after I was trying to get it out by pushing underneath her to get it out by throwing it up. It didn't happen so I had to get it out with my fingers. One of the scariest moments of my life.

So please google how to save your pet if its choking.

Thanks,

Doll

Bones to eat? Like you give her bones that she breaks done and swallows?

The bones in stores that are for pets yes. Or rather we did. I just threw them away.

Mr. Feet and I are sitting here looking at the toys they most generally choke on. (Tennis balls is one!)

And bone alternatives. One of them is a carrot!

Corn cobs can also be dangers by causing potentially fatal bowel blockages.

Ah, ok, that makes sense.

Sorry, in my time I've seen multiple people giving chicken and pork bones to dogs to break up and eat, and it makes me shudder whenever I see/hear about it.

Yeah, carrots make for a nice treat for most dogs.

And your right, it's definitely a good thing to know what do do if your dog starts choking.
