my puppy lacey as i took her heart worm pill out of the wrapper she was righ there and snatched it out of my fingers. she inhaled the whole thing and it got stuck in her throat, she couldnt breath at all and started to wobble and fall to the ground. i couldnt get it out i tried to do something close to doggie heimlich
( dont know how to spell that one for sure) and that wasnt working. hubby tried to reach it out of her mouth and could feel it but not get it outbut that did help her to at least try to cough. by that time foam was comming out of her nose i took her and ran to my neighbors who works at the vet and she couldnt get it out eather, by the time we caled the vet (after hours of course grrr) and got to the vets office it had gone down he did an ex ray to make sure and she had a bit of fluid in her lungs but was going to be ok. needless to say now she stays in her pack and paly while i get the pill out and crush it.
