Yes, I would attempt CPR on a pet. Have done so on a non-pet animal before. Was unsuccessful in saving the animal.

Depends on the circumstances.
16 yr old dog that is mostly blind and deaf, I’d cry my eyes out and hold her.
2 yr old dog that aspirated a chunk of weenie.. Absolutely..
I’d even do the hind lick.....Uoops that’s a punchline.

Ok here is my question. If new version of CPR for humans is only chest compression why isn’t it the same for Dogs ? We don’t lip lock on a human for cpr so why is it still done on critters ?
Word of caution ...never go to CPR class with a set of jumper cables an a toliet plunger.

How does one know their pet is having a heart attack? Aside from smoke inhalation or drowning, when would performing cpr be appropriate?

Greenies are a type of chewy treat that have vitamins and minerals and also serve as a sort of dental hygiene tool. Our dogs love them.

Let me put it this way - if I saw any democrat that needed one, I would pick up my pet and give her CPR instead.

And the cat likes it. OK too much information ahead........The cat lies on the stairs so that she has a backstop. Yup not making this up.

That 30:2 is not the latest per our recent schooling...:o)
. Scratch the 2. We’re being taught by our first responders an medics to just do the compressions.
If I have spare person to assist I will stick with the 30:2 concept till I see more on the new an improved.
Guy at work dropped an I got to see one of the small defibulators used.
They WORK !
I have one in my personal blow out bag that I keep in the truck now. Good piece of gear to spend cash on. Get the training if your company gives ya one.
