What to Do If Your Pet is Choking

If your pet is choking:

• Open your dog’s mouth and swipe your finger across his throat to remove any obstructions.
• If the obstruction is not visible, lift your dog on his hind legs, pulling him into your chest.
• Clasp your hands together to form a fist.
• Place your hands below the ribcage, or waist length. Begin abdominal thrusts until the object is dislodged.
