This was started a year or so ago. I just NOW found it So...thought I'd bump it up. We have a lot of new people here and this information is VERY important for all of us to learn.

Thanks V for starting it!!

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
