over heating.
THIS STARTED ABOUT 6 WEEKS AGO . ONE YEAR OLD BEAGLE PUP. i LOST THIS PUP IN FIELD FOR 6 DAYS . WHEN RECOVERED HE WAS IN PRETTY BAD SHAPE. I LEFT HIM IN KENNEL FOR A FEW DAYS UNTEL HE PUT ON SOME NEEDED POUNDS . THEN STARTED TAKING HIM BACK TO FIELD.EVERY THING WAS NORMAL UNTEL A EXCEPTINAL HARD LONG RACE .THE PUP WAS OVER TIRED WHEN HE CAME IN. I TOOK HIM AND KENNELED HIM CHECKING ON HIM QUITE OFTEN HE CALMED DOWN SO I THOUGHT HE WAS O.K. THE NEXT DAY WHEN CHECKED HE HAD SWELLING AROUND HEAD AND THROAT HAD VET CHECK . VET WAS NOT SURE BUT HE THOUGHT IT WAS HIS SWEAT GLANDS PLUGGED AFTER 3OR4 DAYS THE SWELLING WENT AWAY . NOW WHEN RAN HARD HE BECOMES EXHAUSTED TO POINT HE STAGGERS WHEN WALKING WITH VERY HEAVY BREATHING.HE HAS FOOD AND WATER IN PEN AT ALL TIMES BUT WILL NOT CARRY THE WAITE THAT HE SHOULD I HAVE WORMED HIM THERLY WITH KNOW CHANGE .VET.STUMPED.
The view is all ways the same from behind.

When a person has had a heat stroke they usually have trouble handling heat from that moment on and become much more susceptible to heat-related problems the rest of their life. I would assume a dog would be the same way. If the dog had a heat stroke, it may be that he can't take getting overheated or tired anymore.
If you can't run with the BIG DOGS stay on the porch!
