Abosolutely A, put your life on the line, that I know I would do without any question or hesitation.

Coming home from work late last night I heard on the radio that in a survey taken among pet owners, women said they received more affection from their pets than their spouses/partners.
In my experience, I would have to agree with this.
To answer the question, yes I would do CPR on an animal ... not just my pet.

Hawna: I definitely would do whatever I could to save my cat..she's my baby and she's given me a lot of love. Anyone who thinks you're nuts don't understand the love bond that can exist between people and their pets.
yep,im same that way, i know watcha mean

Yep. Without a thought, I'd do it. With a dog, you hold the mouth shut and give CPR through the nose. I had to do the heimlich maneuver on my lab once and if CPR would have been necessary, I'd have been right on it. I think only someone that has never had a dog could be reluctant to do this.

Of course I would do whatever it takes to save my pet.

mmm...Bronson has been to the vet three times for doggie morphine, to make him spew...
Twice for 2 separate belts, one of which he spewed up when he got home on my Laura Ashley doona cover along with a heap of grass (Eeewww!), the other belt ended up being already through his system, and instead he spewed half a tonne of rubbish from the rubbish bag, including about 500grams cold chips.
The last time for 2 x 200gram blocks of 70% chocolate and 500g butter, which fortunatley he spewed in the carpack seconds before we put him in the car.
Each time, he need double the normal dose, and he still wasnt going to give it up without a fight.
He has also eaten 15 leather riggers gloves, 2 leather mobile phone cases, one with the mobile still in it; the left shoe only of 6 pairs of ladies shoes (no, i dont get it either); 3 suede tool belts; 1 polyester tool belt; 3 leather purses; 2 Filofax's; 1 metre leather belt blank (no buckle); along with many other things.
It is not suprising to find a little brown plastic eye staring up at you when you clean up all the poo in the backyard. Proof that Bronson has been eating teddy bears again.

I'm pretty sure that one of these days, I'm gonna' jump in between a moving car, and one of my dogs, and get run over.
So far, I'm surprised I could get so many cars to stop on a dime by holding up my arms, and yelling STOP!

sideshowbob: I have 2 working dogs, puppies have short breath, when a puppy attacks it's actually a phase of teething (canine) showing his/her order of the pack.
Rub his/her tummy and assure him/her is the leader of the pack.

Rubbing a dogs belly is a good gentle way to show it, you are the leader of the pack.
The only time dogs go onto their backs, is in submission.

There used to be a sausage factory by my house.
One of my dog's got into their trash, and ate about a mile of sausage casing.
It seemed like I was standing on one end holding it down, and telling her to walk, while it pulled out 1 foot at a time; for at least a month!

jeepers: I came home from work one afternoon. My pug always greets me with exagerated ecitment each time. Well, that day, after I set all my things down, I turned to my little four leg friend and saw him falling off of the chair he had been bouncing up and down on, stiff as a board. He lay on the floor with the look of agony on his face, legs stretched out, then he went limp.
My reaction....CPR ! I pumped on his chest and then I started blowing into his nostrels while holding his mouth closed to get the air into his lungs. He hopped up and gave a big doggy shake.
I immediatly rushed him to the vet. It was a heart attack due to a complication with his blood. He was only fourteen months old. Now he is five and a half years old.
I am glad I had been trained in CPR, it works, even on your pets !

kekei: You've seen Dr.Dolittle do it. Would you? Recently my pet was choking to death and I swear to you if we could not prevent the blockage I was honestly thinking of doing CPR on him.
Yup,some of my friends think I would be nuts to do it. One or two said they would try. What about you? How far would you go to save your pet?

I adore my animals - they give me so much unconditional love - and would definitely do CPR if I needed to save their lives... I have jumped in the pool once or twice to help one because I noticed she was swimming around in circles and getting more and more tired instead of going to the shallow end. They are like my children..... I also stop to rescue stray animals - am definitely a rescuer!

I wouldn't hesitate for one moment if my pet were in danger.
Some people on the other hand... .... .......

EEeeewwwww!
And I thought that Bronson's habit of snacking on cat truffles from their litter tray was gross!
This is a magic act I don't ever want to try!

My daughter's little dog is so greedy that once when she was high speed yaffling her dinner, she started to choke.
I rushed across the kitchen to administer the Heimlich manoeuvre, but she was so worried that I was after her food she dislodged the offending morsel scoffing the rest of her dinner down before I could get there.
It was like "I'm not ready to die yet!!! I haven't finished my dinner!"
I've also rescued my lurcher when he got into trouble after rather foolishly leaping into a swollen river, (he's not a good swimmer). I'll never forget the pleading look of panic on his face as he was about to go under and the look of utter relief when I went in to get him.
I was feeling rather smug that rainy day having just waxed my walking boots and wearing waterproof trousers. I ended up with primordial river sludge in my socks and knickers.
