I can totally relate to that...

My 1st boxer had her 1st epilepsia episode during a long walk on a very hot summer day...guess her brain boiled.

Valant had a heat stroke last summer despite me literally pouring water down his throat and making short slow walks between shaded spots.

His fav temp is 0C...he can go forever!
