Snow! You guys really have my sympathy with the crazy weather you are going thought. ~M~ I hope you do get some rain. We've got sun on the south side of the house and black clouds with hail and thunder on the north side.

Had some excitement with Cooper yesterday, he was choking on something, I thought is was piece of his orange rubber ball, did the Heimlich maneuver a few times, reached down his throat to his vocal cords... he was breathing but obviously distressed, drooling heavily, frantic. Grabbed my neighbour to drive us to the vet, they did xrays but couldn't see anything, until one tech saw something way back in his throat. Wedged behind his upper teeth, partially obstructing his airway was a stick. It was stuck cross ways in his throat, about 3" long and as big or bigger than a pencil. Once they saw it, they got it out. Cooper was immediately fine.
