The provided sources do not contain an emergency treatment algorithm for heatstroke in dogs. Source Journal of Vete… addresses thromboelastometry-based hemostatic assessment and disease severity scoring in canine heatstroke, not stabilization or treatment protocols.

The one clinically actionable finding from the available source: disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) occurs in more than 50% of dogs with naturally occurring heatstroke and is associated with death, so hemostatic monitoring is a priority in these patients. Journal of Vete… Overt DIC is supported by concurrent thrombocytopenia, prolonged prothrombin time (PT) and activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), hypofibrinogenemia, decreased antithrombin activity, and elevated D-dimer concentration. Journal of Vete…

To answer your question about the full emergency treatment algorithm — including cooling targets, fluid protocols, and supportive care — I would need sources that directly address heatstroke management.

Would you like to go deeper on hemostatic monitoring and DIC management specifically in heatstroke dogs, given that coagulopathy is the leading cause of death in this population?
