Ranger must have an amazing fur coat from the winter. But it's coming off Monday (the groomer and the vet happen to be in the same building). Which is such a shame--are there any wig shops for Yorkies? |
If he does have heat exhaustion, it's like a cycle. So now that you have begun the cycle it will be easy for it to reoccur much more quickly now. Even a little activity will cause the panting to begin again. Have you tried to take his temperature? I am very concerned that you had him on such a long walk today as well.
