Police dog performs CPR on cop who plays dead, video goes viral

MADRID: A police dog has become an internet sensation after his video performing CPR (Cardiopulmonary resuscitation) on a cop who played dead during a mock demonstration.

Shared by the official Twitter account of Madrid Police, the post says, “Heroic performance of our # Compañerosde4Patas Poncho, who did not hesitate for a moment to ‘save the life’ of the agent, practicing the # CPR in a masterful way. The dog is the only being in the world that will love you more than he loves himself- John Billings.”

The 42-second recording, which has over 2.3million views at the time of writing, shows the policeman acting dead and in no time the dog runs towards him and tries to revive him. Time and again, the dog jumps onto the officer and applies pressure on his chest with the help of its paws. It then places its ear near the officer’s mouth to check for breathing.
