How to do CPR on your pet

A Note From Adriana Carlos

1st Step: Lay the dog on its side, right or left doesn’t matter

2nd Step: Assess breathing : Check mucous membranes, observe the chest for up and down movement.

If not breathing open the mouth and stick out his tongue,  look for any obstruction and remove it if present

If object can’t be reached perform  Heimlich maneuver. CPR can’t be performed if airways are blocked.

3rd Step: Give 4 quick breaths: Close the mouth and breath into the nostrils, try to keep the head and neck aligned with the back.

4th Step: Check for pulse through femoral artery (on the inside of the leg)

5th  Step: Give 15 compression for 2 breathing, compression should be 1/3  to 1/2 of the chest width and delivered quickly in a cough-like fashion.

6th step: (Optional) Abdominal counterpressure suggested if there is no intra-abdominal pathology.
