just a quick excerpt to help swing the puppy to clear it's airway

hopefully someone is reading this for you while you work with the puppies... if your boyfriend is home with you, have him type here and read to you so we can help you

You "swing" the puppy by holding on your hand on its back. Your fingers should support its head and neck. With your other hand covering its body to prevent slippage, swing the puppy downward in an arc. This usually forces the liquid from the lungs and clears the airway.
