I have a 14 year old TB/Clyde cross he is a little on the heavy side. Last year and again this fall he suddenly develops a fever, short of breath and fast heart rate. Vet put him on a course of antibiotics and blood work recent blood work Alkaline Phosphatase 282 (high) CPK (high) LDH(high) RBC ( low) everything else normal he seemed to be better but on the last ride he was breathing shallow and quick and seemed tired This seems to be showing up in the fall he has been vaccinated and wormed any help would be appreciated
