Regards Pidge I seen one have a heart attack once at the end of a race.They said it happened sometimes because of too much adrenelin being produced with the excitment of the race. Quote Link to post
gnipper 6,891 Posted July 1, 2008 Report Share Posted July 1, 2008 Bad news that mate but i'd imagine it happens with any breed as it does with any creature. I've heard of rabbits dropping dead from a heart attack while being chased. Quote Link to post
