How to remove a stuck foreign object in your dog

Removing the foreign object is likely to cause severe bleeding, so only remove the foreign object if it will cause suffocation if not removed!
1. Preparation
Open the dog’s mouth and carefully pull out the dog’s tongue.
2. Remove the foreign object
If you can see the foreign object, carefully remove it with your fingers or non-sharp tweezers. If you can't see the foreign object, lift the dog upside down and shake it gently.
3. Other measures
Go to the vet immediately no matter what, even if you have already removed the foreign object.
Only when breathing and heartbeat have stopped:
(1) Check eye reaction;
(2) Resuscitate and rescue.
Tips: Eye reaction check
When the dog's heart stops beating, open its eyelids and you will see the pupils are dilated and the eyes are dull.
If the dog's breathing stops at this time, cardiac massage or cardiopulmonary resuscitation must be performed.
Tips: CPR
Be sure to ask your veterinarian to teach you how to perform CPR on your dog. Wrong action can even cause life-threatening danger. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation can only be used when the dog has no breathing and heartbeat and will die if no rescue measures are taken.
1. The dog’s lying position
Let the dog lie on the right side of the body on a hard surface.
2. Use both hands to clasp the dog's mouth
Use both hands to clasp the dog's mouth so that the air blown in will not leak out from the dog's mouth again.
3. Artificial respiration
Put your mouth tightly against the dog’s nose, and then exhale 2-3 times.
The strength of your exhalation should be adjusted according to the size of the dog. Especially when giving artificial respiration to puppies, special attention should be paid (risk of lung rupture).
4. The position of the heart
5. Hand movements
Place the heel of one hand on the lower third of the dog’s sternum. Place the other hand on this hand.
Exceptionally small dogs only use their thumb and index fingerCome and hold your chest.
6. Heart Massage
Carefully press your hands (puppy-thumb and index finger) downward rhythmically against the sternum (puppy-chest).
When touching the heart area, press down with both hands briefly and forcefully, and then relax immediately. Repeat this heart massage action at a rhythm of about 20 times every 15 seconds.
The amount of force exerted on the hands should be adjusted according to the size of the dog's body (to avoid rib fractures).
7. Check
Check breathing and pulse
8. Other measures
Repeat this action until the dog has a spontaneous heartbeat again, until the dog can immediately before being sent to a veterinarian for treatment.
