My dog died from heat stroke or heart attack we found her she was bleeding out her nose why does that happen?

we had her on a long chain for the past 3 days so she doesnt chew at the door. she rain through my garden fence which is just plastic chicken wire stuff and pulled out the stake in the ground and we think from all the stress and heat of that she had a stroke or heart attack when we found her she was on her side and she was bleeding out of her nose and her eyes why did she bleed like that and have any of u lost a pet if so how did you get over it?


cuz its killing me.


thanks

My dog died from heat stroke or heart attack we found her she was bleeding out her nose why does that happen?
When a dog has a heat stroke, their internal organs bleed. If the stroke is caught and treated early, this will not happen. They will have bloody stool, urine, and blood will come out of every opening in their body. If it gets this far, there is nothing you can do for the dog. I am sorry this happened to you. I don't think you did anything wrong as long as the dog had shade and water. Lots of people have dogs outside on chains. As long as they are loved and taken care of, it is not cruel! Only time will heal the pain, but it will get easier every day. Just don't blame yourself!!
Reply:I just lost a bird which i have had for 12 yrs to the same thing, she had a heat stroke over the week. It was over 100 degrees with heat index up to 112...jesus, that would kill anything!





i still cant believe it but just dont blame urself it will make it worse





by the way where do u live, just to have an idea, cause the same happened to me...
Reply:Sounds more like a head injury or strangulation. Never heard of bleeding from nose and eyes due to heat stroke.
Reply:When it is this hot, I let my dogs go out into the yard for only about 5 minutes. They are so happy to come inside again! Even if your dog had water, can you imagine how hot the water became? The dog should have been left inside while you were at work or school - NOT CHAINED UP OUTSIDE. Please don't get another dog unless it is going to become part of the family. Treat a dog the way you would treat a child. How incredibly sad for you to not have known how to care for an innocent pet.
Reply:Well, whoever in your family decided it'd be a good idea to keep a dog chained up outside in a heat wave killed your dog. I'd take your grief up with that person.





People, it is August. Please PLEASE bring your dogs inside.
Reply:over the past week, its just been too hot to be outside. Dogs dont have sweat glands they pant, so if they cant cool off then they're toast. Thick coats add to this. If you've been outside, you would see that it was hard to breath UNTIL five. so bringing her in then doesn't change anything, srry for ur loss.
Reply:I got over it by remembering, sometimes it is ok to cry just keep the good memories and also to prevent this from ever happening again dont chain the dog up. My rabbit died of a heat stroke and he was in a cage so he couldn't go anywhere and hide from the sweltering heat. So next let your dog run free around the yard and be sure to keep and eye on her. Did u give her any water?
Reply:Sounds like she got ran over by a car
Reply:This is why you shouldn't get an outside dog! There is NO POINT to getting a dog at all if you just leave it chained up outside all day. Of course she was bored and stressed, and you probably didn't leave her enough shade. Dogs can get overheated SO easily and die, it's really a simple thing to prevent but so sad because it happens so often.





When animals die, they often bleed from orifices or release their bowels, it just is part of the dying process as their body begins to stop functioning.





If you get another dog (which I wouldn't recommend) PLEASE don't leave it outside! Dogs are pack animals and need to be with people.
Reply:Bleeding from the nose and the eyes is more indicative of poisoning....such as rat poison. Could your dog come in contact with rat poison?


I am so sorry for your loss. I've lost many pets and I know how your heart aches.
Reply:That's what you get for chaining your dog outside in the summer! It's cruel! If sh was chew ing at the door it's because she was HOT and wanted to come INSIDE!!! She is in a better place now away from YOU!
Reply:She's in heaven now with no pain running free
Reply:That why I dont chain dogs up................Get a fence or dont get a dog.
Reply:Chaining a dog is cruel. It should kill you.


Bleeding threw the nose is internal bleeding.
Reply:first of all....TAKE BETTER CARE OF YOUR ANIMALS second of all.....this is soooooo sad and i hate you for doing this to an animal
Reply:stop talking about dead animals
Reply:Oh--I am so sorry.


I don't know what else to say:(
Reply:The Bleeding comes from the Lungs or She had a Aneurysm to Bust. Heat Kills. I feel for You.
Reply:Very Simple. My daughter-in law soon to be a "Vet" has had several come in for autopsies, but these small animals died in the car they were left in for a very short time, at least on the last one. This lady immediately brought it to the animal clinic and demanded an autopsy now. It was granted. She only left the small dog in the car for about fifteen-minutes. The temperature outside was 99, with an heat index of 105. "Deadly" for anyone. When she shaved the pet and opened the little dogs chest; she then removed the lungs and steam was escaping from the lungs. They, the lungs was bruised, parched, and bleeding.


I was told that air circulation in a car means nothing when it is that hot outside. The Hot Air alone even with circulation will kill an animal. I did not know that myself.
Reply:Have a vet do a postmortem. The problem with tying an animal outside is that we can't keep an eye on them and they can't get away from somebody doing something to them. A while back I read about some kids who beat a dog to death that was tied up like this. People are horrible and will do horrible things to these wonderful beings. That's why we should protect them, not leave them unwatched. I realize why you had your dog outside but there's so much risk (as you now know) to doing it. If you do get another dog please make sure to properly train her/him to not chew and to be a good citizen so that this doesn't happen again.
Reply:back in february I lost my friend of 12 years to complications from a spleenectomy. I found her at the foot of the bed in a mangled position with a snot bubble coming from her nose and in a pile of her own drool. I cannot answer your question, but I want you to know that I share your pain of walking in on such a horrific sight. My condolences. I still have not gotten over it, and yours will take some time too. The best comfort I have is that she still appears in my dreams where I can "see" her again. Good luck.
Reply:Heat stroke:


A severe condition caused by impairment of the body's temperature-regulating abilities, resulting from prolonged exposure to excessive heat and characterized by cessation of sweating, severe headache, high fever, hot dry skin, and in serious cases collapse and coma.


They can have a heart attack when they are scared to death or there heart stops.








I know how you feel my dog had kidney failure and passed away last year.


I am so sorry to here this happened.





P.S never chain up a dog!
Reply:why would you treat your dog with such disreguard. I wish if people would have pets. treat them as pets. Don't chain yor dog outside for 3 days!!!!
Reply:I'm sorry that ur dog died i love dogs and I'm an expert on them i believe the dog had a heart stroke because she couldn't probably breathe in the hot heat the heat will make pets or animals do unusual things outside she probably tried to find some shade but she panicked and she finally gave up and she probably laid on the ground so she could have a rest and was in the heat to long and died I'M SORRY
Reply:actually this is often something that happen in a certain stage of body decomposition. May have no relationship to cause of death.
Reply:when you die, blood comes out of every hole you have. then there's rigormortis...


sorry for your loss
Reply:very sorry for your loss, I miss terribly having a dog...grew up with them but I haven't had one for years...what I wanted to tell you is that bleeding happens due to the blood vessels expending in the esophagus due to the extreme heat your dog suffered ...I know it's not a lot of comfort right now but she went quickly I assure you.
Reply:I'm sorry you lost your dog.





Bleeding out of the nose and eyes is very not normal. So I think there might be more then meets the eye there. Has she eaten anthing diffent?





If you dog had shad and water the chain should have done nothing. How hot was it the day you lost her?
Reply:Was your dog in the shade or full sun the whole time?? Why would you tie your dog up for so long? Did the dog even have water?


I treat my animals like family, I would never leave them just tied to a postion unless I needed to go into a shop or something.


Poor dog- what he must have gone through his last hours must have been awful. Rest in peace doggy!! xx
