Here's a tip should, heaven forbid, you need to give "mouth to mouth" aid to a pet: use the "mouth-to-SNOUT" method. That is, close the pet's mouth and hold it shut while you breathe into the nostrils. You will get more oxygen down to the lungs this way. Take a minute to read this link. Knowledge is power! http://globalcrisis.info/CPRanimal.html#todo Our hero, Officer Tugwell!

Our yellow lab and our daughter's boxer were playing. Our lab's lower jaw got caught under the boxer's collar. Luckily I happened outside just as the boxer was passing out. We were able to cut the collar and she survived. We no longer allow our dogs to wear anything around their necks, including bandanas, while playing with other dogs.

She is a volunteer there . Our obedience instructor had us get this type. If a resident refuse to let go of the collar all you have to do is push in on the sides of the clip and collar comes un done.

Officer Tugwell deserves the reward and I just adore his desire to save poor Frodo! I am also sure that he was joking (somewhat) about Frodos mouth being smelly because as most of us know, any humans mouth can be much worse!!!! Frodo and his partner Patch look like such fabulous dogs!!!!! God bless this police officer for his compassion and concern and quick life saving actions. GOOD MAN TUGWELL!
