Do not fear a dog because they are so little

If you think he was actually choking on something and you think his breathing is affected you have to act immediately and forcefully

Grab him and immediately turn him upsude down
Usually that action alone will have them let go of anything they are holding in their mouth
Sweep a finger into their mouth ... use a pinky if you have to

if that still doesn't work open his mouth and see if you can see anything there I have used tweezers in the past for my dogs

God forbid ... there is doggy CPR
but that is only as a last resort if their breathing ceases
