Right in front of me. He was choking on something, couldn't breathe, was foaming at the mouth and was staggering. He was starting to look like he was going to pass out. His eyes were starting to go back in his head and when he could focus on me, he looked so helpless. He wasn't making a sound and was trying to get his paw in his mouth. I tried to stick my fingers in his mouth and do the baby mouth sweep, but it didn't work. I grabbed him and tried to do heimlich on him but it didn't seem to work either. I ran to the neighbor who is in a vet tech program in her high school and she came over. By the time we got there, my dog was OK and was excited to see her. My attempt at heimlich must have loosened whatever it was.

I shook and rocked back and forth for more than an hour and I keep reliving it in my mind. I don't want to go to bed because I will see it every time I close my eyes.

I think it triggered me because I am all jumpy and anxious now.
