[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 591546, member: 1233"] How very cute. Great news and I am sure this will help Molly tons. It is astonishing how long a dog or cat can grieve. I have no idea what the overheating means. Might ask the vet about a thyroid issue? I don't knwo if they are related, but my thyroid is not working even a tiny bit and I have the worst trouble when I get hot. Even just warm means I want to vomit, and I don't sweat normally. It can be hot as Hades and I will not get any real sweat at all. The docs are not sure why but some think it is related to my thyroid. You do need to keep a doggie thermometer very handy and check her often when she is overheated. If it gets too high, some say 103, others 105, you must cool her off ASAP. The vets and vet hospitals here pour straight alcohol all over them from half gallon to gallon containers. Isopropyl alcohol is what tehy use and it works. we had a friend with a dog that kept overheating and they started ordering alcohol in gallon bottles because otherwise the dog can die or have brain damage. The alcohol never seemed to hurt, not from how the dog acted. I hope they can figure out what is going on wtih her. [/QUOTE]
