Me & my hunting buddy have lost 12 dogs to pseudorabies over the years. I think that is what your dog had.Was the dog was exposed to pseudo about a week prior to him going down? If you had him in hogs a week or so before he went down,that is when he contacted pseudo.
Caught hogs with him on Monday and he died on a Sunday. Really all of his symptoms were pretty consistent with pseudorabies. I'd just always heard of people losing multiple dogs at once to it, and he was the only one. Crazy thing is that he's actually one of my looser baying dogs. I always assumed catch dogs and rough dogs would be more likely.
