Saving a Dog Choking on a Ball

When choosing a dog toy, please consider an extra safety feature that is often overlooked. Many hard rubber balls and chewing toys now have a specially designed hole in the center that helps prevent suction. Even if the ball is accidentally lodged in their throat, your pet is still able to breathe. This allows enough time to seek help. Thanks to a fast-acting owner, and this great safety feature, everything turned out fine. Dr. Erskine, Dr. DeLord and our great team jumped into action to help dislodge this ball.
