I have tried blowing lightly into their noses.
Have also done rubbing with a towel for extended periods of time.
Have also done (WHILE HOLDING BODY AND HEAD SECURELY with both hands ) 
"slinging the puppy (head 
pointing away from) downward as if to centrifuge any mucous out of the pup's 
air passage.
Success rates have varied.  I resuscitated a pup for almost 30 min and it has 
made it.

I have heard you can take a Qtip dipped in coffee and place it at the back of 
their tongue.  The caffeine is
supposed to stimulate breathing.  I have never tried this.

hope this helps.
good luck

Subject: [Showgsd-l Freelists] CPR and Newborns

I'm looking for some suggestions and your ideas about CPR for newborns that are 
not breathing and also for ones that are breathing but not strongly. 
 
What methods have worked for you, and which didn't. How long would you continue 
CPR on a newborn that was not breathing upon being born. And anything else 
you'd care to add! 
 
Thanks in advance.  :-)

The only way to understand & estimate the nature of the dog is to study his 
whole development. Such a task requires a sympathetic, dog-loving observer, who 
tries as far as possible to enter into the innermost mind of the dog, and who 
will know how to short-circuit all his purely human points of view. --Max von
