Your CPR certification for adults does not automatically mean you also know the correct way to perform CPR on a puppy. Chest compression for humans and dogs involve forceful motions, with one hand on top of the other on the surface of the chest. However, this sort of force may do more harm than good when dealing with a puppy. Learn the steps to modified respiration and CPR for puppies to increase their chance of survival.

Awesome infographic.
Good job, it would be very useful for the people who don’t have pet sitters in their home. Thanks!
This is a very useful post. Remember though, call your emergency vet clinic right away. If you call 911 for your pup, they wont come, some people really do think they respond to animals as well.
