Have you ever preformed CPR on a pet?

Question

Would you be willing to preform CPR on an animal?

Since I raise goats, I've preformed CPR on newborn kids, and saved them.  Lambs too.

I personally would rather perform CPR on an animal (even one gloppy with the birth "jelly.") than I would another human I'm not related too.

I did CPR on a dummy dog last week.  If you did it correctly there was a green light, if you did it incorrectly it was red.

Since I'm training to be a vet tech, I kinda have to be willing to perform CPR as it will be part of my job... No choice there really!

I took a pet CPR class, but I've never used it on a real animal.

I have only done it on people but would if necessary on an animal. Well
unless it was an ape or something gross.

I've never had to do it (knock on wood), but I would in a heartbeat if I had to in order to save one of my animals.
