7. Your dog is weak and lazy

If your dog is lying down, doesn’t want to get up and has a hard time walking or even standing up, then immediately rush to them with fresh water and check their nose. Overheating is known to cause dogs to sleep more, and it can also make your dog’s muscles shiver from the heat overload, making them appear “lazy” and weaker.

8. A rapid pulse

A pulse rate depends on the size of your dog and age. While older and bigger dogs tend to have slower pulses, puppies are the opposite. But how can you effectively check your dog’s pulse? The best and simplest way to do it is by placing your hand on your dog’s chest where their front elbow joint is located.
