Very fortunate. Animal CPR works less often than on people.

Maybe he is really a cat and has nine lives!

I read the article. Marshall is 9-years old, a bit old to be pulling sleds in marathons. According to Scott Janssen, the dog has been in about 6 Iditarod races.
Time to find Marshall a nice soft bed in front of a fireplace, the better to mush in his dreams.

I had a nursing instructor back in about 1982 who had been an ICU nurse. She saved her Dalmatian with mouth-to-snout resuscitation. I saved our family’s choking Cocker Spaniel with the Heimlich maneuver a few years earlier. I think my instructor and I probably both thought that if it works with humans, might as well give it a try.

I performed the Heimlich maneuver on an unconscious cat once and saved it, and I HATE cats. A fur ball popped out of it’s airway!

Re: “And people CPR doesnt work that often.”
Just a few days ago I read a stunning statistic.
Only 7% of people who receive CPR after cardiac arrest are alive one year later.
I had no idea.
To: zeestephen
IIRC, that may be the number for “alive and unimpaired”; i.e., who haven’t suffered brain damage while their hearts were stopped, but yes, the number of people who are brought back by CPR and/or a full code is a lot less than you’d believe from TV and the movies.
Don’t get me wrong - 7% beats 0%, which is what you’d have with no CPR. Still, it’s no magic wand.
