How to give first aid to a drowning dog?

First aid for dog drowning
1. Immediately remove the water, mud and dirt from the dog's mouth and nasal cavity, wrap your fingers with gauze (handkerchief) and pull out the dog's tongue Outside the outlet, keep the airway open, and then let the dog's head droop to pour water.
2. When breathing stops, artificial respiration should be performed immediately. Make the dog lie flat on its side, clean the dirt blocking the respiratory tract in the mouth, press the ribs next to the shoulder blades with both hands, and squeeze out the air from the lungs. Press it out and quickly release your hands. Repeat the above two actions repeatedly until the dog resumes breathing on its own.
