This is done by one or more of the following methods: back blows, manual chest thrusts, and finger sweeps. Once the airway is open, rescue breathing is started by means of mouth-to-mouth resuscitation (see artificial respiration). The third element of CPR is circulation, which begins by establishing the presence or absence of a pulse.
A tail that is consistently down may indicate that your pooch is in a substantial amount of pain. Some of this discomfort could stem directly from the tail although it can also be linked to pain incurred from the base of your dog's spine or his hindquarters.
A dog halti is simply a head collar that somewhat resembles a halter worn by horses. Also known as a gentle leader, head halter or head collar, a dog halti basically goes over the dog's head with the bigger loop going around the dog's neck and the smaller loop going over the dog's muzzle. A correctly worn halti should allow enough space to allow one finger to slide under the cheek strap.
