  1. Thanks so much for the great post! It's so scary to actually go through this. I watched the CPR video, so now I feel more prepared to handle the situation if it ever happens again. I've been certified in people CPR for 7 years now, but you never really think about having to do CPR on your dog!

    I loved the video about the cop saving the dog. It made me cry. It's so wonderful that there are people who will go to great lengths to help those pups in need!
