I never had a yorkie that gulped their food, but Dennis twice now almost choked to death. Yes it was very scary! I gave him a dog biscuit, cut about an inch long and he got it lodged in his upper pallet. He was only about 12 weeks old and a little over a pound. I saw him cocking his head and moving in circles so I grabbed him and realized what had happened. I was afraid to put my hand in their, that I would somehow push it down his throat, but as the seconds past there was no other way. It took a while but I managed to push it forward and he spit it out. I am still very careful with his treats, so far he stays out of trouble with greeny bites and he loves them.
So glad your baby is OK!
