Oh terrifying! where exactly did you hit to dislodge them? Was it between shoulder blades like with humans?
Im ashamed I whacked him where his neck and chest join I thought about when babies choke. I know it was an emergency but his face looked so hurt I felt like a git
Oh gosh, so so scary for you - I bet he forgives you everything he knows you are his bestie - well done for doing the horrible but so totally necessary x
Scary but glad he is OK. Good job you where calm about it, know not easy when it is your own that is in trouble (friend of ours was not with theirs) I am sure nice cuddles where given soon after by him and all forgoten
He was probably looking relieved! And in any case he has forgotten that already, and you saved his life I hope I would be as quick thinking in an emergency as you! X
I’ll never forget when my OH choked on a French fry. Thank god we were at a restaurant. I tried to help him but he fell to the ground and I couldn’t pick him up. This happened 3 years ago and I still think about it at every single meal.
I have a disease which causes me to choke often so I'm used to not panicking it's been a bit of a strange day
I've just got personalised Stanley Christmas cards made. They better get pride of place in everyone's homes
I just bought Nelly a new harness in Pets at Home , took her along to try them on , she needs an extra small size . I had to smile at the irony of previously having to buy XXL for Sam and now buying the smallest of things for Nelly . She was everso good though , until she spotted the bunny enclosure ! xx
You're brave! I've yet to take either of mine to Pets at Home. They have to put up with whatever I choose!
Oh how terrifying for both of you! I'm so glad the choke training worked. What did you actually do? Is it something like a Heimlich's manoeuvre but for dogs?
Sounds like a scary moment @SwampDonkey glad you acted so quickly. Poor Rory. Monts stole a cooked chicken leg straight out of the fridge yesterday morning (I stupidly left the door open for 10 seconds) and he snaffled it down pronto. Fortunately no ill affects.
