Cut Catch dog from 120 yards but then ran 600 yards after bay broke and she usually gets pretty worn down after a run but she came back really hot. It was a moderate temperature night, only about mid 70s around 11pm. After a while she couldn't stand up and then slobbers way worse than before and white fluid started coming from her mouth. She then went into shock and I noticed her pupils were dilated to about the size of a penny and she couldn't see. I've never had a dog stroke out so I didn't really know all the symptoms. Electrolytes were immediately shot down her throat when we got to the house. I left her alone with water for the night not knowing she would make it but then this morning she was walking and could see. Just blew my mind how she recovered in a matter if hours

Yep I've seen dogs go blind as well as lose mobility over the years. Crazy stuff.

My bulldog had a heat stroke last year. Sent her to a bay, bay broke and she went out on her own and caught a hog. Only had a garmin on her and it screwed up. After about 2 hours it started working again and she was showing bayed. Went in with another bulldog and she was caught on a smaller boar. As soon as the other dog caught mine payed down and got stuff as a board and passed out. Lucky there was a creek right there and layer her in it. She came too and laid nose deep in the creek for close to half an hour. She finally got up and was able to go back to the truck on her own.

Bad thing is now, she is sensitive to heat. I have to keep a close eye on her on warmer days.
