What tip would you give pet parents for working with animals that you've learned as a pro?
If your dog has a pulse but is not breathing, you can perform artificial respiration. In humans, it is mouth to mouth. In dogs and cats and puppies, it is mouth to snout. If your dog or cat does not have a pulse, you will need to do CPR, or Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation, which is a combination of artificial respiration and chest compressions. How far you go down for compressions or squeezes depends on the size of your cat, puppy or dog.
