<p>A dog breeder has saved his eight-week-old puppy with mouth-to-snout resuscitation after it almost drowned in a garden pond.</p>
<p>Quick-thinking John Greene gave motionless Jack Russell Nutty heart massage and the kiss of life in a frantic 10-minute rescue bid in Co Wicklow.</p>
<p>The 42-year-old was alerted to the exhausted animal sinking to the bottom of the pond when the chickens he keeps in his backyard kicked up a commotion.</p>
<p>&#8220;Nutty was out rambling around the garden. I&#8217;d gone upstairs in my house, looked out through the window and saw there was a disturbance,&#8221; he said.</p>
<p>&#8220;I could see the puppy sinking slowly to the bottom of the pond. The poor fella was exhausted, he must have been in the water for 15 to 20 minutes.</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;d say with all the plunging and doing his damnedest to get out, with all the commotion the chickens knew there was something wrong. The little fella just couldn&#8217;t climb out. He was sinking, motionless, not breathing and almost blue.&#8221;</p>
<p>The dog lover ran outside his home in Greystones, pulled the freezing pup from the water and began heart massage and mouth-to-snout after feeling a very faint heartbeat every few seconds.</p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;d heard of horse whisperers but never dog breathers,&#8221; he said.</p>
<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t know a lot about CPR but I covered his nose and breathed for him and then lifted him up to see if any water would come up. It was an automatic reaction,&#8221; he said.</p>
<p>A week later, Nutty is fighting fit and enjoying the back garden as much as ever &#8211; although with mental scars taking longer to heal the pond remains off limits.</p>
