I am so happy Kalina is doing good. Your calm and rational thinking helped saved your babies life. Between you and the gardner a blessing happened. Gorgeous Kalina is safe and happy with her mommy. |
I didn't know they were made in China. On the bag it says California!! I wish I still had the bag, but I gave it back to PetSmart this morning. Baby Fidgette: I was thinking of trying the Heimlich, but when I felt the wafer it felt like it had stuck to her esophagus and I didn't think pressing on her tummy would help in this instance. I was trying so hard to think of what was the best thing to do. Also, I didn't have anyone to hold her mouth open. I didn't want to leave her for a second at that point to try to find someone to help. I know I acted purely out of gut instinct and probably did the wrong thing and it just happened to work. You're right though about the Heimlich and I need to read more about that!! :) Margaritaville: Hubby said that, since it was 100% chicken it wouldn't show up on an x-ray. I am praying that it went into her tummy and not into a lung via the trachia. I'm watching her closely though and it's a worry. Thanks. :) |
WOW!!! I do not think I would have been able to keep my cool that way! Thank you for the warning about these treats, these are something I have given to Bruce in the past, but surely will not in the future. |

SO glad everything is ok!! keep us posted on her condition.. XO. -i wouldnt have thought those treats wouldve been bad(i wouldnt have left her alone if i gave them to her..but i would have been like you and thought they were ok under supervision)..are they soft or hard?? |

omg im glad she's okay i would have gone all crazy scared but would have probably stuck my finger down her motuh too |
oh ok. we got her some of the wellness(pure rewards) jerky-type treats. i break them up before giving them to her..they look like they would be the same texture just square not round. but thanks for the heads up, either way!! im SO SO glad everything is ok!! i can imagine how you were feeling. <3 |
Thank you so much for posting this warning. That's why I love this site, for all of the great information and help. Thank GOD your sweet baby is OK! |
Wow that was scarey. I'm glad she's ok. |
Thank goodness Kalina is okay and you reacted as you did. Good job. As for those treats, thanks for the warning and they need removed from the shelves!! |
Oh how scary! I'm glad you were able to stay calm and get Kalina breathing again, good for you!!! Thank you for the warning! I'm glad Kalina is okay! |
Thanks for the warning! I saw one reply that said they had made a dog sick-why were they still out for sale????? I am glad your's is ok! I would of had a heart atttack! |
wow how scary! i'm glad kalina is ok, you're lucky that gardener was there |
oh my gosh saw these type of treat in the petco today- i never thought it would be a danger, didn't buy them, now never will. It is like giving a quarter to a toddler- you never would do that- the manufacturer should be informed- dogs will choke- please keep trying to reach them!:eek: |
i just bought some of these! I wonder if they will return them? They are unopened |
Iam so happy she is ok, I know i panicked when molly choked on a treat, now I dont give her anything without crushing it up, Im so paronid now, I did the same as you and stuck my finger down her throat, only to make it worse, thank god she vomited and it all came out, hugs to you both:) |
How scary, thank God that Kalina is okay:love:! I gave one of those to Luna a while back and it got stuck up on the roof of her mouth, between her teeth. She kept running up to me, and I was thinking she was begging for more, when I noticed that she couldn't close her mouth:eek: THAT was frightening, I can't imagine what you went through today:cry: I don't think that they should be given to ANY sized dog, a bigger dog could just as easily swallow it whole and have a problem:( |
Big ((((HUGS)))) to you both !! I am so happy to hear she is ok. I commend you for acting so calm and getting things taken care of despite being scared to death. I agree, she was laying on you to let you know she loves you and she knows you saved her life !!!! God bless you both, |
I had bought those treats, only the bigger size! Indigo my toy poodle gagged on them twice, and I had cut them in 1/4's!! They are gone, gone, gone! |
OMG!!! It was like I was living that with you reading your post!!! That is sooo scary!! What an angel that gardner was!! What a blessing!! How is she now?? I didn't read all the thread....but did you call the company that makes the treat?? |
YIKES! What a horrible ordeal! Thank you for posting this. Hopefully, people will heed your warning! |
Wow.. how scarey. Your quick reaction saved her life. It so hard to know what treats to give our little ones now days. Glad she is OK. |
OMG!!!! How scary. Thank God she is okay!!!!!!!!!!! |
Wow..that is soooo very scary!! I am so glad you saved her life and possibly the life of many other yorkies!! Good job!! Dawn |
That is so frightening, and you were incredible. Charlie was chewing on a C.E.T. Oral Hygiene Chews for small dogs, and it was stuck on the roof of his mouth. Threw them away after I realized he could also choke. |
Good job and quick thinking on your part. Thank you so much for posting your story. You may have just saved several Yorkies and their brothers and sisters from a tragic accident. I know all of us Yorkie Moms are grateful to you. Hope Kalina continues to be okay. Love her name! :aimeeyork :animal36 |
That had to be so scary, This same thing happened in the car with us but It was with my human baby. she had a hard juice jar lid stuck in her throat and could not breath. she threw her head back and busted my nose, I was so scared the only thing I could do to help her was pull it out of her throat, knowing it could of caused damage, but If I didnt she would of died. it was so lodge in her throat I had a heck of a time getting ahold of it, but I did and she was then able to breath. Ill never forget it, it was so scary. |
:eek: OMG! That is scary because I was looking at that same treat a month ago at petsmart and thought right away that this treat is a choking hazard because of its shape and size. So I got the strips and the dumbell shaped ones instead. But OMG!:eek: I feel so sorry for you and at the same time glad that everything is okay. I need to warn the petsmart or any petstore employee that this certain product is a choking hazard. I feel bad that I didn't say anything before. :mad: |
