Hello, sorry to hear about Watson. It sounds like he may have some irritation from the choking episode. If he has cleared up the foreign material then this irritation should resolve on its own with some time, however, if he has not cleared the foreign material from his throat or neck, then he may need to have this evaluated. If his voice continues to be raspy, then definitely have Watson evaluated by a veterinarian promptly to ensure he doesn't have any other abnormalities within his throat or trachea. Hope this helps and best of luck.
