That is the pathetic look your dog gives you after she almost chokes to death. An hour later. After she's done shaking, coughing, wheezing and scaring you...this is the look you get.
Last night, Lily decided that she would continue the bad behavior that her grandpa allows when he watches her and snatched 1/2 a steak off the table. As I was trying to get it away from her, she took a huge chunk and tried to swallow it whole so I couldn't get it. As I was scolding her and taking the rest of it to the trash, she starts running towards me panicked. I realize then, she's choking. I start to panic and yelling to John to save her and to do something. It was kind of a blur. He had to give her the heimlich. It was ridiculous. After 4 pumps, she spit out the steak...3" across. No wonder she couldn't swallow it. Needless to say, I was quite stressed the rest of the evening. And that's one of the reasons John is my hero! Thanks to him, Lily's fine and here to live another day.

OMG, that would scare me to death! It makes me giggle to think of giving sweet Lily the heimlich, though :)
WOW!! that's stressful!! Thank goodness for John! Aw man I would have seriously had a panic attack! I'm so glad Lily is ok =)
Poor Lily! I would have freaked!
My shihtzu used to do that too... he was in fact horrible for eatting things he shouldn't and he would be aggressive when trying to take it away from him... We used to use the oven mits to grab him and them remove whate ever he stole! Don't let her ever get chicken bones... or you will have a vet bill through the roof and special food to feed her... dogs... the things we go through! Lily looks thankful tho!!
Oh, no! Glad your little guy is okay! That woul be soooooo scary!
