CPR With Your Dog? New Pet Poll Results

Earlier this month, the Associated Press and Petside.com conducted a poll of pet owners, and it had some kind of interesting results. It found that many pet owners would consider giving their dog mouth-to-mouth, while many others don't have an animal first aid kit at home. (Luckily for me, I've never had to swap spit with my dog.) The most shocking? Only 30 percent of people have given their dogs table scraps. I mean, come on! I know it's not healthy, but a few people out there seriously had to have been lying.

USA Today's Paw Print Post broke the results down as follows:

• 63 percent of dog owners would be at least somewhat likely to perform CPR on their pet.
• 54 percent don't have a fire evacuation plan.
• 41 percent have had at least one incident requiring an emergency trip to the vet.
• 30 percent of dog owners at least sometimes give their pets bones from table scraps.
• 20 percent have a pet first aid kit at home.
• 16 percent have pets who've had allergic reactions.
• 7 percent have pets that have eaten something poisonous.
