I was at a pheasant club yesterday hunting with my 5 year old black lab.
Long story short we winged a bird and sailed a long, long ways. Dog chased it down and brought it back. We start hunting and all of a sudden his back end goes sideways and then he goes down. Tries get back up but back end is working.
I make him lay down and settle him down. Give him water etc..
10 -15 minutes later he is back up hunting like nothing happened. Hunted for at least another hour and a half and never missed a beat.
I have heard of EIC - 'exercise induced collapse' - but never experienced it.
Maybe it’s not EIC?Guy in the club said he had dog with it and just watch him and don’t over work him.
I have call into the vet.
Any advice or experience?
