Rescue 911 - Episode 213 - "Cop Saves Dog"

A cop comes to the rescue when a dalmatian chokes on a toy ball. This segment was taken from Episode 213 which aired on January 1, 1991 on CBS. This particular version of the segment was taken from a 30-minute syndicated episode, so small parts of it may have been cut out to make room for commercials.

Hey JohannTheDog!
Well, I could only be a huge fan of your lens. We actually have one of the same CPR videos from Pets America on our main lens at http://www.squidoo.com/petbrags. Since your lens is so popular (well deserved!), should I remove the video and just add the link to your lens? Or maybe it would be better for all pet kids to leave the video (your thoughts?) Regardless, I will add your lens link to our page. You have some great info. here. Is that okay with you? As I said already, great lens, awesome topic - - a BIG 5 STAR from me!
Best Regards,
