Pet CPR

Elaine Acker, CEO of Pets Amercia, demonstrates the proper technique for performing CPR on pets.
We shot this video with "Wolfgang" because he's a larger mannikin and the process is easier to see. However, this works the same way with cats. Just adjust the depth of your compressions accordingly (just as you would with an infant vs. an adolescent in human CPR).

Thanks for this. I hiope that next time I am unfortunate enough to be at the scene of a car/cat collision, I will be able to try and save the little animal - as well as comforting the poor driver, that is!

1 my dog gave birth to a litter of 6 puppies, on the second day, i checked how they are doing and found out that one was unconscious probably accidentally lain over by his mother. the pup is still warm but his face is already pale, i tried doing my own idea of cpr on him, i dont know if i made progress. his face was already starting to go back to normal, but he urinated, my mother told me that once anybody already urinates that means his dead. so i gave up. i feel sorry for the pup.

Yeah this is great. I work for city vet in Dallas and will be going through a pet cpr course that my manager is certified to teach here in about 2-3 weeks. :)

Always good to have the knowledge in advance... hopefully I'll never have use for this information but it certainly doesn't hurt to be educated!

When you think about it, this is really similar to CPR on a human. Thank you for uploading this!

I wish I saw this earlier. I just lost my dog today from drowning. This is the worst day of my life. She was not only my dog but also my best friend . I can not ever shed tears anymore. Please dog owners watch this video. It can some day save your pets life. I just looked it up, and I wish I did before I lost my best friend.
