Dog in shock

Had two dogs attacked by coyotes today. I brought them in the house, cleaned out wounds with peroxide, but one is in shock; I wrapped her in a towel to keep her warm; any other suggestions on what to do?
Thanks,
Bob

Sorry to hear! Sounds to me like the dog needs a vet. If it is in shock it is due to blood loss means it needs fluids.Also probably some antibiotics to keep a systemic infection from occurring.
If it was my hound I would get it to a vet.

FYI 15 CC s of Pedialite brought her out of it. Second dose next morning back to normal.
Thanks,
