Yes. You don't have to do it directly mouth-to-mouth. I've worked in research laboratories and had to resuscitate a few animals. We used a plastic tube. One end of the tube is placed over the animal's mouth and nose, and you blow into the other end. By the way, EMT personnel don't place their mouths directly on the mouths of the humans they resuscitate either. They use a special device that is placed over the mouth of the victim. It protects both the rescuer and the victim from exchanging fluids/germs from the mouth.
