What to do if there is a foreign body in the dog’s trachea

Dog Medicine
Manual extraction method: When a foreign object is stuck near the glottis, the head and mouth need to be secured, and then the foreign object can be removed with fingers or pliers. Back patting method: Place the dog's back flat between the legs with its head slightly lowered so that its chest is close to the first responder's. Use the palm of your hand to pat the dog's spine between the shoulder blades with appropriate force.

Abdominal push method: The dog lies on the supine platform. The first aid person stands on the left side of the dog's waist. Place his left hand flat on the abdominal wall between the umbilicus and the ribs and apply appropriate pressure close to the abdominal wall. Place his right hand on top of the left hand. While pressing, slide it toward the chest to increase the pressure in the chest. Pushing several times in this way can also expel the foreign body.

Laryngoscope method: When the foreign body is in a deep location, laryngoscope guidance is needed to remove the foreign body in the trachea, but a professional doctor is required to complete it.

Trauma, bleeding, medication, diet, etc. may cause foreign bodies in the trachea, causing the dog to have difficulty breathing, visible mucosal cyanosis, and choking.
