How to deal with dog heat stroke foaming at the mouth:

1. Immediately move the dog to a cool place, preferably an air-conditioned room.

2. To avoid the heat source, you can turn on the air conditioner, and the blower can blow on the dog's head and meat pad.

3. Physical cooling is required. Use normal temperature water to wet the dog. Do not use ice water directly, because ice water may cause the dog’s heart to arrest. Do not directly put the dog in the water. Water soaks the dog's body.

4. Wipe the dog's meat pad with an appropriate amount of alcohol. The meat pad is the part of the dog's heat dissipation and metabolism. Rubbing alcohol can help cool down to a certain extent.

Symptoms of heatstroke in dogs:

1. Elevated body temperature: The dog’s body temperature rises sharply, up to 40.5 degrees Celsius.

2. Shortness of breath: shortness of breath progresses to dyspnea, the whole body is highly hypoxic, and the conjunctiva, oral mucosa and tongue are brick red, and then black purple.

3. Brain injury: due to meningeal congestion and brain injury, the increase in cerebrospinal fluid and brain pressure will cause the dog to have generalized convulsions, exophthalmos, unsteady walking, sudden fall to the ground, convulsions all over, limbs in a swimming posture, and white mouth foam.
