Stay calm
Open the dog’s mouth if safe
Look for the object
Remove the object only if you can see and easily grasp it
Do not push the object deeper
If the dog is unconscious, start CPR if you know how
If the dog is conscious and large, perform abdominal thrusts if trained to do so
If the dog is conscious and small, use back blows and chest compressions if trained to do so
Check the mouth again after each attempt
Get to a veterinarian or emergency animal hospital immediately
Call the vet while on the way if possible
