Dog Owner Rescues Dog, Then Performs CPR (He shoulda bought a Skamper-Ramp!)

Sam, a 6 year old Labrador Retriever, nearly drowned in owner Devin Thomas' pool. Mr. Thomas rescued the dog and then performed CPR. "I clamped his mouth shut and blew down his nostrils," said Mr. Thomas, who admitted he didn't really know what to do. Dr. Harold Krug, Sam's veterinarian, said Mr. Thomas' actions probably helped save the dog's life. He added that moving the dog also probably helped. THIS DOES NOT HAVE TO HAPPEN. If you are a dog owner that lives on or near a property with a water hazard, you need to get a Skamper-Ramp! This innovative safety product provides your dog with a means to get out of the family pool, pond, or even back onto the family boat. It's cheap compared to Vet bills, and will help your dog back to the safety of dry land even if you're not at home. Just as you fence in and lock up pools, etc, this is another necessary safety step for your pooch. Be Responsible, and get a Skamper-Ramp!!
