                                            ❗Warning choking hazard❗
 Yesterday Coco was rushed into us with a treat lodged in her throat which was partially blocking her airway . Luckily the team quickly anesthetized her and managed to remove the end of  a treat.  Coco is now doing well at home and resting after her ordeal . 
Brachycephalic breeds ( short nose or flat faced dogs) are more likely to choke due to anatomical abnormalities and a long soft palate . Also some of these breeds eat very quickly. So be careful when giving treats . If giving treats avoid hard treats that require extensive chewing .
