You've posted here before, and it's always been to advertise your freakin' rat terriers (BTW, visited your "board," hated it). I'd say that there's a non-zero chance that this is another ploy to get people to visit your "board." That said, different dogs have different ability to tolerate heat. Activity can lead to overheating, and I'd let the dog be as idle as it wants to be. Also provide plenty of water. If you're concerned about it, ask a vet. I'm not sure why you're pointing to elevated heart rate as the first symptom, BTW - the first symptom of overheating is excessive panting, often to the point of sucking air, along with ataxia. -- Melinda Shore - Software longa, hardware brevis - If you don't understand how things are connected, the cause of problems is solutions -- Amory Lovins |
