    @Chloefizzball No, it is a canine CPR mannequin! But that reminds me to make an important point, that you should never practice rescue breathing or chest compressions on any real dog that doesn’t need CPR- if so, you would risk over-inflating the lungs or damaging the chest area. Plus I’m sure the dog would hate it!

    Very similar to what the airlines teach for humans. If you watch this video a couple of times; then go back and repeat watching it….it tends to imprint on you so that you can respond in an emergency. The details are important such as laying on right side; check for breathing; clear airway and sweeping the mouth clean if obstructed; checking for pulse. IF PULSE, DO NOT USE CHEST COMPRESSIONS….HEART IS ALREADY BEATING…..just go back to rescue breathing. DONT DO ON DOG W/ HEARTBEAT!!!

    @Skskdkdd Never fear, it is a professional canine CPR training mannequin, with inflatable lungs and a body frame that simulates what a dog’s rib cage would really feel like if you were to give chest compressions.

    Thank you, Melanie! I hope I never have to use this, but in case the situation arises, I think now I will be more prepared!

    I wish I’ve watched this video a week before. My 16 years old Poodle drowned in the fish pond in my house in Bangkok last week. He was floating when i found him and I didn’t know how to help him , it’s too late. I still have one Schnauzer left, and will never make the same mistake again.

    @VSK121 I’m very sorry to hear about your poodle. It must have been so scary to find him that way. Of course performing CPR doesn’t always work, but I’m glad you found my video and can feel more prepared if you’re ever faced with another dog emergency.

    @TheMrTaquito You’re very welcome, and I’m glad you made a note on your cel. There are also some good pet first aid apps out there which are great to keep on your smart phone. Thanks for watching and all the best to you and your dog!

    I almost had to use what I learned in your video tonight. 2 of our dogs were outside playing when I heard screaming and found our Dobe’s collar wrapped around the lower jaw of our Shep. I cut the collar away and both of them are fine but it scared the shit out of me.

    @d0pesick Wow, just saw this and wanted to tell you its been a strange week, as I’ve heard 3 other stories of collar accidents. This type of accident is not uncommon, and there are collars that can help protect your dogs. Look up “Tazlab” and you’ll find a safety collar designed to stretch open if it gets caught on anything. Good for people with two or more dogs that like to wrestle and play. I’m so glad you were there to save your dog, and that they are both okay.

    @MelanieLMonteiro Thank you for the tip on Tazlab collars, I guarantee we’ll be ordering a pair. Both of them have martingale collars and Mona’s jaw didn’t even catch the slack part for it to happen. It was a struggle just to slip scissors between the nylon and for a moment I was scared – my stepdad told me that Dani’s body was getting heavier.. Fortunately everything happened faster than it felt, they were back to playing shortly after. Thanks for helping me feel prepared for the worst.
