Is rawhide stuck? Puppy gagging, discharge, sneezing after bone.

Question

My 5 month old puppy was sneezing alot for a few days and two days ago she ate a rawhide bone. The day after eating it now she is gagging like something is stuck in her throat with a discharge coming from her nose. I'm not sure if it could be kennel cough, dog flu or if the rawhide is actually stuck in her throat. Pet's info: Dog | Black and Tan Coonhound | Female | spayed | 5 months and 10 days old

Hello there and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to address your concern. Based on these symptoms, I would recommend having a veterinarian examine Millie so that the most appropriate diagnostic and treatment recommendations can be made. This could be due to an infection or a foreign object causing irritation in the airway. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further. An examination along with x-rays would be my recommendation to start with.
