Saw people had their dogs at the beach without shade in 95 degrees Fahrenheit heat. "Cooled" the dog down in the 80+ degrees ocean water. And this all day long. It's to hot during the day at the beach without shade!!!!!

Working in ER this past week: We had four heat injuries each day for two days straight. Four of these were French Bulldogs, which happens to be the most common US breed these days. The others were three Rottweilers (brachycephalic by exam) and one Pit X.

Only ONE survived. NOT a Frenchie. Not a brachycepahlix breed. The Pit X.

Why? He happened to be playing in a pond. He ran and played with kids on land and then in the shallow pond water in 95 F 85% humidity weather until he collapsed. The humidity at his breathing level was probably a lot more, since it was approx 12 inches above water level.

They recognized a problem and brought him in… from one hour away.

On arrival
he was HYPOTHERMIC. Low body temp. Typical of heat injury. We warmed him up, treated his other abnormalities and within a
few hours he waa normal. Like NORMAL. No kidney failure. No coagulopahty. NO PROBLEMS.

Why is this? Probably because this dog reached critical heat injury when he happened to be in the best environement for treatment… IMMEDIATE cooling in water that was colder than him.

RAPID cooling with the coldest source available is what saves dogs with heat injury.

It’s time ro let go of the old wive’s tales of how ice water causes vasoconstriction or that rapid cooling is bad. HEAT is what causes death in heat inrjury, not the coolong method.

Seen it happen to a dog I know. He ate the cob a few days before he came into our care and started acting weird. ER and surgery! Dog survived and is o.k. The corncob was all black due to the long time it was in his stomach but never broke down like regular food does.

100% agree. Sad to see those developments in Europe and Australia as a Swiss born citizen. There are so many great trainers in Europe I got to know over the few years in IGP. I hope they still can save the sport in Europe if it's not to late. It definitely has to do with the political developments from the left destroying everything from great and free societies. Keep fighting for our dogs!!!!

We've been getting a lot of clients with littermates.
Do some research before you decide.
My friend Sydney of Wild Child Dog Training put it so well, I thought I'd share..

Sandy searches for her ball, hidden under the box. She sits and looks at the handler to indicate.
She is rewarded immediately with food.
Go, Sandy!!
