[QUOTE="birddog 68, post: 2653300, member: 121617"] It’s actually EIC (I fixed it) It’s exercise induced collapse. My lab has it and is a horrible thing to watch. When over stimulated (usually birds) the dog will lose coordination in the hind legs until they collapse. It’s heart wrenching to watch her back end collapse and she tries to pull herself with her front legs to get the birds. Not treatable, it’s genetic and possibly from inbreeding field trial dogs. DNA tests are available and all good breeders test for the gene and won’t breed a dog if positive. My dog is a highly trained house dog now. [/QUOTE]
