A recent poll was taken on pet owners to see who would be willing to give mouth-to-muzzle to save their pet. According to Associated Press 58% of pet owners (63% dog owners, 53% cat owners) said they would try CPR on their pet in the event of an emergency.
This isn't something you would typically think of doing to your pet, but the truth is the procedure isn't much different that what is done to people, size is the biggest difference. Did you know that there are pet first aid classes? and having a pet first aid kit for your house is available? Many people think of their pets as kids and would do the extreme to help save their lives.
I once saw on TV a guy give mouth-to-mouth to baby deer that wasn't breathing after he did a crude C-section to get him out of his moms belly after she had been hit by a car. It was one of the most amazing things to watch, he ended up saving the fawns life!
Do you have any amazing pet survival stories? If so please share with me.
