Signs of Choking in Dogs

Choking in dogs can be a serious emergency. Signs of choking in dogs include pawing at the mouth, difficulty breathing, excessive drooling, gagging, coughing, and panic. If you suspect your dog is choking, it's important to act quickly. Try to look into your dog's mouth to see if you can remove the object causing the obstruction. If you can see the object and it's safe to do so, you can try to carefully remove it. If you can't see the object or your dog is still struggling to breathe, perform the Heimlich maneuver for dogs. To do this, stand behind your dog, place your hands just below the ribcage, and give a quick upward thrust. It's crucial to seek veterinary help immediately after performing any first aid.
