If your dog is choking and gasping when giving medicine, here are some things to try:

Keep calm: Try to stay calm and avoid panicking, as your emotions may affect your dog.

Observe the dog: Observe the dog’s breathing to see if there is difficulty breathing, coughing or other abnormal symptoms.

Let your dog rest: Placing your dog in a quiet, comfortable place and letting him rest for a while may help relieve symptoms.

Contact your veterinarian: If your dog’s symptoms persist or worsen, or you have any concerns about his health, it’s best to contact your veterinarian as soon as possible. Your veterinarian can provide more specific advice and treatments that may be needed.

Avoid force-feeding medicine: Before the dog recovers, avoid force-feeding medicine again to avoid causing choking and coughing again.
