I have had that happen with all 3 of the Yorkies I have had in my life. They must have the best kind of mouths for getting food stuck in the roof of the mouth! I know that sign of digging at the muzzle so well by now - I know something is stuck up there and all I have to do is run my finger over the lodged food and my Yorkie is back in business. But you are so right that they look to us when in real trouble as if to say, "Uh, I need some quick help here!" They are sooo smart that they know we have the ways to help them faster than they can take care of it on their own. Funny little smartypants!
