Does anyone know what running fits are and how to cure them?

Most that I have seen is a sugar imbalance.
On a long day of running, I throw a piece of white bread about each third of the way to each dog as it comes by.

Some is an epileptic problem, usually inherited. Dog falls over.

Some is worms or tick in spine area or base of tail, dog weak in rear end and drags itself with front legs.

Some is inbreeding too close and its mental. Runs crazy or shy for a while, wild eyed, and comes to itself after a while.

A friend of minehas a hound that has an occasional fit Just pours some Mountain Dew down his throat and he comes back around . His is do to low blood sugar just like in a diabetic they become disoriented and loose coordination

my friend has a dog like that he used surup when she would have a fit but never breed a dog that has them the pups will more than likly have fits to adn it can happen anywere cause my friends dog died in her pen adn anouther friend has one that she can't run cause anytime out she will have a fit.
is it just me or does this seem to be a growing problem around here i am hearing of alot more dogs having these fits?

Get a tube of Nutri-cal. Give a little before you run them and maybe a little later on depending how long you run them. This will cure the problem with the fits.
