If there is no heartbeat, begin heart compressions. Depress chest 1.5 to 3 inches with one or two hands. Continue artificial breathing.
HEART COMPRESSIONS
Over 60 lbs.=60 times/min
11-60 lbs.=80-100 times/min
5-10 lbs.=120-140 times/min
If your pet weighs 5 lbs. or less, place hands around rib cage and apply heart massage.
hope this helps if anyone was wondering exactly how many breaths and compressions they'd have to do for their pups.. hopefully you never need it.

Hello there,
I am not quite sure I fully understand. Poppy is almost 2lbs so does that mean that first I puff gently in her nose 30times within a minute and then massage heart for a minute and then repeat puffing for a minute and then massage.....?
Thank-you for clarifying.....
Regards
