Swift and Safe Retrieval: When encountering a drowned animal, your priority is to remove them from the water quickly while ensuring safety for both you and the animal.
Raising Hind Legs: If the animal is not breathing, gently elevate their hind legs. On a riverbank, position their head at the lowest point.
Continuing CPR: Proceed with the CPR procedure you've learned previously. CPR is crucial for oxygenating the lungs and circulating blood, with the hope of a swift recovery.
Consult a Vet: Even after successful CPR, it is advisable to have the pet examined by a veterinarian. Secondary drowning, caused by fluid accumulation in the lungs, can still pose a fatal risk.
