Heat stroke, seizure, could even be a spinal neck injury. No telling without seeing it happen.

we hunted at night so im gonna rule out heat stroke but maybe a seizure. My buddy said he's done that once before. It just was odd to me cause it was a small hog they caught.

I read an article last month in tuskers about neck damage in hog dogs. It was very interesting and the symptoms were very close to what looks like over heating. If u can find the article I suggest u read it. Very informative.

Seen this happen to a few dogs over the years. Most cases the boar hit the dog under the chin. If you didn't see it happen there's no telling what happened.

Sounds like a seizure to me. I have had two dogs that way and as they get older the seizures come more frequent and last longer. Most of the time it happens when they get excited.

Same thing happened to my bulldog the other night. I walked him in to about 30 yards and sent him in to a kudzu patch. It was a good hog about 220-230 and he was slinging dogs all over. After I tied the hog we went to walk back out and my bulldog just laid down and wouldn't budge. The hog cut one of the bay dogs bad but the bulldog had just one small poke under his chin. He is in very good shape and gets hunted a lot, but was pretty hot and panting bad. He's never been wore out like that after just one hog when I sent him from only 30yards. I cooled him off and got him to the truck but he seemed out of it the rest of the night and the next day. Now he is acting normal. Can yall expand on the neck injury symptoms, and if it is just temporary or should I put him up for a while?

I had a bulldog that used to do that that I rescued from the pound. He would get excited and fall over and start shaking and then get up and be ok. Come to find out he had heartworms causing it. Good luck

I will have to find my copy of the magazine. Maybe ED Barnes has a link or copy of the article he could post here. Shotgun Arkansas

It could be low blood sugar or exertional hypoglycemia. It is more common in hunting dogs than people think. Fasting dogs before a hunt can cause it, dogs not being in shape, dogs with more bottom than energy to sustain them. Sometimes the symtoms are mistaken for siesures and heat stroke. Take a small bottle of honey hunting with you and if the dog falls out again, squirt some down his throat and it should pick him right up.

I had a dog get knocked out once, but she didn't do any shaking. When she came to she just staggered around like she was dazed and didn't know where she was. Took about a week before she was acting normal again. From what you described it might be heat or some sort of seizure.

Had my catch dog get nocked out about 8 months ago. Watched the hole dad-gum thing. IT was about a 200 pound sow, the catch dog ran up to catch on the ear, and just as he did the hog swung around and hit him in the ear area and it laid him out cold as a wedg. the bay dogs kept right on baying and he came too a few seconds later. He was shaking a little and had all four legs spread wide apart like a giraffe, drunk off his butt. the hog was standing right beside him, I guess she sinced he was not a threat at that time and just kinda looked at him and turned and made her break with the bay dogs right on her tail.. ended up catching her about 400 yards down the creek... the stranges thing I have ever saw....
