How to rescue a dog from drowning

1. If the owner finds that the dog is drowning, he should first fish the dog up immediately, and then remove the water in the dog's mouth and nasal cavity. The owner should pull the dog's tongue out of the mouth to ensure that the dog can inhale air and avoid suffocation.

2. The owner can lift the dog's hind legs, keep the dog's head drooping, and then press the dog's belly hard to squeeze out the water. This treatment method is the same as the emergency rescue of human drowning, and the water in the stomach must be taken out first.

3. If the owner finds that the dog has stopped breathing, he should give the dog cardiopulmonary resuscitation immediately. Let the dog lie on its side, clean the dog's mouth, and don't have anything blocking the dog's breathing. The owner overlapped his hands and kept pressing the ribs next to the dog's shoulder blades to squeeze out the air in the lungs until the dog resumed spontaneous breathing.

4. You can also pat the dog's abdomen for 1 or 2 times, then grasp the hind limbs with your hands and shake them repeatedly for about 10 times, then put the dog down for observation. If there is no response, repeat the above actions.

5. When the heartbeat of the drowning dog stops, external cardiac massage should be performed first.
