Dog Choking Coughing And Eating Grass
The coughing and eating grass epidemic is seen in many dog breeds, most notably the German Shephard. The problem is that these dogs often choke on their food while trying to swallow it. This can lead to a serious choking injury that can require surgery. Until there is better understanding of how this behavior occurs and proper training, many dog owners are at risk for their pets becoming choked on what for them may be just a small bite of grass.

What are some potential reasons why a dog may choke during coughing?
When a dog coughs, theair that is exhaled can be quite thick and heavy. This can make it difficult for the dog to breathe and cause difficulty breathing. A dog may choke on grass if it has difficulty breathing because of the thick air in its lungs.

Choking is a common problem in dogs and is caused by many things, including food allergies, lack of exercise, and when the dog is trying to vomit. If left untreated, choking can lead to serious health problems for your pup. Here are 5 tips on how to help prevent choke in dogs:
1. Make sure your dog is getting enough exercise. Dogs who are not given enough exercise can become obese and develop choke issues. “If you know your dog loves running around, make sure they get at least one hour of play each day,” says Dr. Barbara Slater, board-certified veterinarian and chair of the canine medical section at New York Veterinary College/Cornell University School of Veterinary Medicine.
2. Avoid eating grasses that the dog might be allergic to.
What to do if your dog chokes during coughing: If your dog chokes, give them plenty of water and oxygen and try to calm them down. If you can't get them to stop choking, call a veterinarian.
