LOL! Pippi's like "I'm never coming here again." Good info to know. Thanks.
Lmfao
That was funny.

🤣
I know right? I love how she's squirming and is like, "Why is it always *me* that has to put up with this?!"
Pippi is seriously starting to wonder about you using her as a model. Her eyes almost popped out when you had her upside down! haha We love you sweet lil Pippi!
yepperoo yepperoo 😂😂🙏🏼
😂
Thank you so much!!! My dog was literally chocking to death & foaming everywhere!! U helped us save her. GOD BLEAS U!
You are most welcome
Thank you Doc & Pippi .... hopefully she got a big treat after that!
Hahaha she was done with him after he breathed into her nose 😂😂 shes got stories for her friends now lol
I had a bearded collie years ago that took a block of cheese off the bench and tried to swallow it whole.
As he was choking he ran under a coffee table. I pulled him out and performed said move.... he whipped his head back and bit me on the face. I got up in shock where he promptly regurgitated it and ate it again. I still have a scar to remind me lol.
Thanks for the warning of your dog whipping their heads back in their frenzy to eat in this case a stolen block of cheese my puppy often runs away trying to swallow things she steals whole . Glad you were able to save your collie sorry you got bit.
Hey, it came out though!
Pippi is so adorable!! Her tail was wagging through the whole video even when she was upside down. lol
Best resident guest star we have!
@@VeterinarySecrets thanks Doc!
I know!!
I actually had a 16 lb bichon choke on me- twice- but the first time it was on one of those drumstick shaped milkbones. I gave him the treat and he started to fight eating it and pawing his mouth. I was afraid he was going to claw his eyes. I realized he was choking, and tried to heimlich him- wasn't sure where the spot was on a dog, so I started squeezing him at the lower part of the ribs and it was not working. He started to panic, ( so did I !)and he wanted to run, I caught him, picked him up very awkwardly and unfortunately picked him up right under the ribcage and squeezed his poor belly- and what do you know???? That milk bone popped out of his mouth 3 feet away! I picked it up, and the rounded part was soft and wet which I think allowed it to slide out with that heimlich maneuver I found by accident. After this I broke those treats into 2 bites.
He did it to me again several months later and I was able to find that spot again to dislodge the food- can't remember what the 2nd offending object was. He has since gone to the rainbow bridge to wait for me when it is time to reunite :)
Thanks for this video.
i find milkbones quite dangerous. I bought some but decided to throw them away.
Thank you for this... something I never thought of until tonight when I needed your video... thank you so much... my dog is fine now... fingers crossed
She was such a good girl,. I had to laugh at the blowing in her nose,. I've resusitated puppies piglets and calves, all new borns,. As a farmer you you want livestock not dead stock,. And you get beyond the mucus, my kids would go eeeew mum. Oh and my cat when I was a child. My parents didn't have a clue what to do. This is so good showing people what to do. Pipi is very accommodating isn't she, very sweet girl.
A really funny demonstration!!!!!
Wow! I would never had idea that I could help my animals like that in such a difficult and life-threatening situation. You are a real GEM! Thank you!❤
Pippy is an ANGEL!
Lol what a tolerant pup 😂😂😂
Hope you found the video helpful! Thanks for watching!

Pipi is a champ! Thank you for a real demonstration of what this looks like with a dog, all the pictures and explanations without doing it to a real dog have never helped me understand how to do this, but your video was so well done and detailed. THANK YOU
Great topic! Thank you doctor and a big thank you to Pippi. I will share this!
Thank you for your service
Very important video topic. Thank you .
This just came up as a suggested video. 4yrs late. I actually have used these techniques. My dog was eating and she was very old and tried to swallow and my partner was out with her and I just hear blood curdling screams of panic calling for me. I was told she looked struggling and just collapsed. My non veterinarian training took over and I started directing to assist and quickly swept the mouth to find a piece of chicken had caught and she couldn't get it up or down. Two long fingers acting like chopsticks pulled it out and a few puffs of air and rubbing her sternum quickly brought her around. Immediately took here toe emergency vet and they gave her clear. Never had to go to heimlich thankfully but glad to see my instincts were on and feel comfortable knowing that in an emergency with my new dog I should rely on that instinct.
Thank you for this informative video, looking forward to viewing more.
I just saved my dog today with the helmich . Saw him loosing conscious and somewhat looked like a small seizure.
So good to know this helped
was it choking or not? if not you should’ve done cpr
@@chaseandseek cpr is when for they go unconscious. if they saved their dog’s life then they did exactly what they needed to.
Lol! Best laugh I had all day watching poor patient Pippi good naturedly put up with your hands in her mouth and sort of being held upside down. The really important facts will undoubtedly stick in my memory much better now. Thank you Pippi and Dr ! Definitely sharing this to FB.
Thank you so much! You are saving lives!!!
Thanks Doc! I needed to know this! 💚
Excellent video info.
This is an amazing video! Thank you! Thank you very much!!!
Thank you! So helpful! Pippin is such a sport. I miss Thula, is she ok?
Much thanks Dr. Jones👌
Excellent presentation !!!
Thanks, Mike!
Thanks for demonstrating this. I have a new 9mo. old Shih Tzu and am paranoid about her choking on food, especially since her breeder told us that my puppies sister died from choking. This is a serious subject, but have to say, it was comical to watch you struggling to turn Puppy upside down :). Laurie
Thank you for this! I had to do the back thrusts because my dog was making a scary gagging noise like he was choking or going to throw up. He's okay now, and I'm worried I hurt him with the slaps. It was worth it to save his life!
Great video, Good dog, Pippi! such a good model!
Wonderful information. G-d bless you. And kudos to Pippi, she deserves extra treats now.
Thanks for watching!
I just love your vids , good dog pippi
Thank you! 😃
AWESOME VIDEO!! THANK YOU! Shared with everyone I know who has fur babies!!🐶🐾🐱💗
Could you possibly do/explain in detail TITERS? 😁
Thanks Doc I learned a lot 👍
Welcome
thank you so much, Ive wondered about that, as I have a Lab thats only 9 months old and hes wanting to CHEW everything up, even my built in wood benches out back, do you have a remedy for THAT lol
😂 @ Pippi!! Poor girl she's such a sweetie!
:-)
My dog choked on a biscuit this morning and I remembered watching this, luckily I also have watched dog cpr because he stopped breathing and his heart stopped got the biscuit out eventually and got his heart started he was dead in front of me so I urge you to learn these skills a rush to the vets and he's home resting with medication and a return vet visit in 2 days luckily we will be celebrating his 3rd birthday on Saturday not burying him
Well, Dr Jones. This maneuver saved one of our pups lives! She was chewing on a leather chew bone, got excited, and it slipped down her throat. I was right there. First the trying to regurgitate, then aspirating, then panic, then she started losing consciousness. I had tried to sweep her mouth and her throat, only pushing the slimy, gooey mess further down her neck. As she was passing out I was able to pick her up (as you showed us) and let her head dangle down toward the floor. I was jumping around with this 50 pound bag of dead weight trying to get something to happen. Nothing. It's amazing how your adrenaline will kick in when you are trying to save a life. I kept on jumping up and down with her dangling, FINALLY the chew bone came out! She was so scared and so was I. But she survived and is thankful to be here. One more rescue for this little rescued dog! Thanks Dr Jones. I was able to remember your video and act on it.
So good to hear! Would you be OK if I used your comment in an upcoming video/dog choking update?
good tips, thank you, hope I never need to use them though. In one of your other videos, you said tree oil would help cure continuous ear infections, you specified only using 2% of the tree oil, but what would 2% be and in water? and how much water. Thank you. So how much tree oil, teaspoon, tablespoon to how much water or just straight tree oil? Please advise, my dog keeps getting ear infections.
I've always wondered about this.
Thanks for demo
Hope it was useful
@@VeterinarySecrets my puppy likes to chew stuff and I'm afraid he would swallow something and choke.
Thank you and thankyou Pippy
You are so welcome
Go PippI! Pippi is a real star! Great video!
Yes :-)
Lol...I'm dying!!! Great info!
Peppi’s the best ❤
Thanks doc! :)
Thank you
5:20 lol 😂 poor Pippi, her world was turned upside down!! She's such a good sport!!! Pippi: "you haven't given me anything to eat, stop forcing me to open my mouth doc!".....and why you blowing my nose? Dr Jones, don't be surprised if Pippi doesn't come back to visit you or if she's out in the neighborhood and pretends she didn't see you! 😉😉😉 thank you for the informative video and the demonstration! 👍👍👍👍🐶🐶🐶
please french traduction at 3:00 ? I dont understand what is "sweep at the back of the throat"
What about on a 7 lb dog.how would I do compressions
Can’t you get a dog stuffed animal? It might be a better model for you. Poor Pippi 😳😲😬.
He could but it would be less funny
There is a woman who does CPR on youtube if you google. Thats great for dogs that react like stuffed dogs and dont weigh more than a pound and are inanimate. Every try to do cpr on a dummy than do it on a person...its not the same. Im sure the dog was just fine and he got a little workout.
she doesn’t look bothered
It really helps to see on a real dog
He knows what he's doing, he's not hurting her. I'm sure she gets a good treat after she's done.
Working with our own dogs, as Dr Jones did with Pipi, will create a bond of trust between our dogs and ourselves that could very well save their lives. Under emergency situations and extreme duress our dogs NEED to understand we are doing this out of love and out of life and death circumstances. GOOD PIPI! GOOD DOG!!!
Thanks chinookvalley
I love you, guys!!

Mu chihuahua who already has an anxiety problem, is hacking like something stuck in the throat...
I notice her stomach making tons of noises almost like a parasite...
previously caught her having taken out and eaten shells of shrimp from trash...
Also recently had fed Carls Jr with no sauce...
She had also just gone for a walk where she had sniffed some poop...
Pippi is greatly patient with you!😂
Thank you for this video! Pippi sure was accommodating! My dog would never have let me do this!
fantastic..
Pipi is such a good girl!!!
She sure is. Thanks for watching!

This video helped.mensave my dog today! Ty from deep down my heart. It wasn't pretty but I did it. Tytyty
Thx for showing the laying down method too, my german shepherd is over 80lbs 💪🙋🏻♀️
You're welcome
I'm sorry I was crying with laughter so much I didnt see the demo. Very good to know. Luckily I have a Yorkshire terrier!! Happy 👍🇬🇧🤣
I have a new puppy who's always eating things that she shouldn't and wanted to know how to preform the Heimlich if ever something got caught in her throat this is brilliant thank you!
Im watching lots of different videos on what to do if a dog is choking and all these steps i keep seeing are in a different order and i dont know which one i would do. Some people say to check their air ways first then do the doggy wheel barrow, them some people are saying to do the Heimlich maneuver first. So honestly i dont know the first thing to do even though im trying to yake in all the information from different videos
Thank you for the informational video I'm just wandering if we do anything for cats with hair balls I was thinking of scooping Thomas my cats mouth for a hairball but I didn't know I needed to because he has had hair balls allot before?
This may help..th-cam.com/video/Est7LJkERME/w-d-xo.html
My 17yo beloved large fox terrier dog died 2 days ago after choking on a small lamb bone. I knew he was choking but didn't know what to do. He walked rapidly around the lawn and his tongue was turning blue. I tried clearing his throat but he bit my hand hard. I then tried giving him a little shake and squeeze but he became unconscious. His eyes were still open and not blinking and I thought he was dead already so did nothing more. I wish I knew what I know now after watching this video. I replay the situation over and over in my head and kick myself for not doing the right thing. Sorry my buddy Zeke. I've saved you before from many things, you fell in the freezing pond, got tangled and trapped in barbed wire, fell down a hole, but not this time. I think I gave you a good life. RIP Zeke 2004-2022.
Pippi is such a good sport😭😂😂
Pippi is our best resident guest in the channel. ;-)

I love your vids but now I can tell you my cat was choking and I just needed you to get to the point. I remembered most because I'd already seen this before but I needed a quick reminder. Maybe a minute or two vids emergency first aid would be good. Sorry but I'm still shaking and scratched
Good point
Months after I took the first aid class for humans, I used this on my dog. The first time it didn't work. The second time it did. I used much more force than I thought I had to. She was still standing so I used the human model. She lived well past 15. No broken ribs like I had thought. It made a popping sound when it dislodged.
So good to know and Thanks for sharing
I would be missing several fingers after trying this on my maniac. Pippi’s amazing 🤣
There is a street dog who is choking. I don't know what to do. I tried to give him some milk he drank it but still choking
Is something wrong with him??? What should I do?
I’m glad I’ve done this twice this month and it was a life saver!! My malamute eats like I hadn’t fed her all week and she swallows to fast. 🤦🏻♀️. I’m going have a heart attack!
Get her one of those slow water bowls where it’ll slow her down. Worked for my dogs.
At 4:34 when you say "if it's not flowing you want to repeat it again", do you mean repeat the 4-5 times Heimlich Maneuver or the 2 rescue-breaths?
Also, if we're alone, how do we exactly know of the rescue breaths are "getting through" and they're not obstructed? Bit hard to watch the chest at the same time.
Thank you very much for your information I have a new puppy she was born February 12th and she wants to eat everything so now I just got to get over the fear of handling her I wash my hands too much because I have chickens Turtle cat Zina is my puppy
Best dog ever!
very good video i hope i won't have to use it though pippy was a good sport about it :)
I think seeing a healthy dog respond actually aids you in working out if you've cleared the obstruction. A struggling dog is probably taking in a good amount of oxygen. There is a video of some girl wondering about gormlessly videoing her dog choking. It's not fun to watch (it cuts off before anything happens/resolved), but it does show you how the dog cant make any noise except maybe a weird hitching motion, and how they paw at their face, toss their head about in a weird way, run in circles and even still wag their tail! They cant say 'Im choking' and it's silent, so you have to be attentive.
My 5 pound chihuahua was choking on the little knot end of his “ dream bone” . Had to rush him to Vet ER. It was stuck in his esophagus.🥴 they had to scope him and push it into his stomach .
Glad he is OK
Cute lil pippi 🦋
Thanks for watching!
Good to know these lifesaving tips would do anything for my two dogs Labrador retriever and Labrador x Dalmatian very important video thank you for uploading 🦋
I have two dachshunds occasionally they start making a dry heaving noise and they have not eaten or drinking anything, i’ve witnessed them open their mouth panting as they’re making The heaving noise and does not stop on its own! So I point their nose in the air to stretch their neck out and rub their throat and an up-and-down kind of hard , this puts an end to their heaving, do you know what causes this?
Is this a reverse sneeze?
Please show for giant breed Need to see
We need to learn this so THANK YOU PIPPY❣️❣️❣️ so sorry lol
*i feel bad for Pippi 😁😁 but she's so cute*
😂😂 thank you for your video I am happy to know that ! thank you to pipi to !
Thanks
Pippy was a great patient
She is amazing:)
Lol the dog is like hay what the heck
This was very informative thank you
The one and only time I will ever give my dog bread. I personally don't eat bread, so when I was given some free food for Thanksgiving, it included a loaf of bread. I feed my dog real food 99 percent of the time. He is very healthy. All my dogs have lived past their lifespans with real food. So this particular day, I cooked a turkey for Thanksgiving. Taking all bones out, and cutting up the turkey into very small pieces about 1/2 inches in height, length, and width, he had a nice turkey dinner. After he ate that, a few minutes went by and I decided to give him one piece of white bread. I ripped it up into small pieces and put it in his food pan. He ate the pieces and immediately started to choke. And he couldn't breathe. He is a yellow lab. I couldn't do anything but watch, because I would not be able to get my hand in his mouth and down his throat. It took more than a minute, but he finally was able to get that bread down his throat and survive this experience. I will throw that loaf of white bread in the garbage and never give him bread again. So the information I am seeking is with regard to the following:
Is there an apparatus, maybe made out of metal that can be put into a dogs mouth to keep it open so that you can get your hand and fingers down his throat without getting bit by the dog clamping down on your hand?
Also, what was lodged in his throat was not a hard object, but bread which probably had a slimy texture when it got in his throat and got doughy and expanded. This would be very difficult to get out of his throat. How could you open up a breathing passage with something like this stuck in his throat. And also, I don't know how a Heimlich maneuver could dislodge doughy bread glue like this?
I actually don't expect you to provide a good solution to a situation like this, if you are not able to. However, I thought I would share it to the public here to make them aware that bread is not a good thing to feed a dog. Even one piece could prevent them from breathing and has the potential to kill them.
UPDATE 11/27/2020: I added this above comment to my website: www.survivaltrekker.com/ because it relates to survival emergencies. So how does this article relate to my survival website? In a survival situation, you may be baking your own bread, or you may have some emergency food in your refrigerator which includes some loaves of bread. I would suggest, under no circumstances should you feed your dog even one slice of bread. This is based on my own personal experience with what happened to my dog. The choice is up to you to make.
PLEASE NOTE: Cornbread is OK. It is made a different way and is grainy, not doughy. It is more like a grainy dry cake. I always give my dog homemade cornbread without him having any problems.
Firstly what great tips. You never know if you may need to do this some day.
Secondly what a fantastically behaved dog. 😍
True that! It’s better to be prepared, just in case.
@@VeterinarySecrets thats right. Ive done a first aid course for dogs simply because we all need basic skills to helpsave a life just in case
Lol, she is a good dog. Thanks for sharing.
Lol poor Pippi, but it helps to see it done on an actual dog.
I have a question.. it's not related to the video but I am concerned abouty my dog, His stomach has started to feels tight so I looked up symptoms of bloat and he doesn't have any of the problems of the many articles and videos I've seen. He also hasn't been going to the restroom and much and his gums look normal and nothing seems wrong but I want to be sure he is ok.
OK now?
He is fine now, but thank you!
You are really great but I think Pippi is mad at you now thank you🙏👍❤
I am here because my dog started to choke on her kibbles. She was still doing some breathing and trying to work it out so I left her alone while looking up videos in case I needed to do something. Thank you so much for this video. My question is, couldn’t the breath in the muzzle push the thing further in to the windpipe or lungs?
She’s fine by the way. She worked it out on her own.
It was scary though!
So good
I saw this last year. That saved my Jack Russell's life. He grabbed a thick pork loin. I can into the room and he was on his back. I grabbed him and did the Heimlich hard. I hit him on his back out of panic and did the Hemilch again really hard. I had him against my chest. A huge square piece shoot out! Then, I put my finger down his mouth and another junk came out! He started breathing and bit me! I think he is OK. I did not know if I should give him peroxide to make him throw up the rest of the pork. Thanks.
I ended up giving him water, chicken stock, and flat ginger ale to soften the meat. A had to force it down his throat. He had a real chunky bowel movement and peed a lot all night.
Pippi is fine. You saved her 👍🏻⛑✅
😎👍🏻
Pipie is like what the frick is happening
Don’t you wanna sweep the mouth if you see the object? Because if you sweep the mouth and don’t see the object you could potentially push it farther back.
Pippi...."This is not my idea of fun dad"
Just had my dog Saving Grace come running to me choking. As I was about to grab her she stumbled and hit floor. The force of hitting floor caused it to dislodge. Thank God. (It was grass)
