Next, we have a cute and special video that has racked up millions of views online, right?

Yes, it is a cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) educational video that saves lives.

The instructor is very special. It is actually a firefighter's pet dog.

Released by the Gyeonggi Provincial Fire and Disaster Headquarters, this safety education video is gaining huge popularity with nearly 1.8 million views and 100,000 likes.

The video shows a dog finding a cardiac arrest patient, placing its two front paws on the person's chest, and pressing down hard.

Along with its cute appearance, the video also introduces the CPR methods necessary in actual emergency situations.

The instructions advise calling 119, turning on the speakerphone, providing the exact location, pressing quickly on the exact center of the chest, and not stopping chest compressions until the patient's breathing and movement return.

Cindy is the pet dog of Fire Inspector Shin Dong-gyun, who works at the Gyeonggi Provincial Fire and Disaster Headquarters.

With excellent training skills, Cindy can reportedly master simple movements in just two to three days.

Netizens poured in praise, commenting, "It is so cute that even a stopped heart would start beating again," and "It seems like children can learn it in a fun way."
