Actually, I think that happens to some dogs when it gets really hot outside. It's a heat related problem and since dog's can't sweat, your best bet is it use a wet towel and wipe his face down every few minutes. The water will evaporate and cool him down.
The vet will probably just give you some expensive medicine that won't do anything. The wet towel (cold water) trick always works for this problem!

it could be mange, it could be allergy, it could be one of a hundred different things and there is only one way to find out. If it is mange, and that often starts on the head there is a medicine that will quickly put things back to right. IF it is mange and goes untreated the animal will suffer gravely. If it is allergy, you will hve to detective until you find the cause. Either way you need a vet. IF your dog is lazy, it is very possible that the dog is uncomfortable. Please do a vet check and ignore the unbelievably rude post above me. also untreated eye infections can lead to blindness.\\I worked in a kennel for a couple decades and can attest to the fact that i never saw this happen do to heat, it was an outside kennel and in Missouri it gets hot as heck.
Hi Dogmation. I was going to respond with a sarcastic reply last night when you first posted, then realized you're not just a kid trying to gather info, but possibly a very obnoxious adult, having some fun with everyone. Or at least those that haven't figured this out yet. Did some homework... you advertise a lot of services on your site, training, on-line book, ect. Tell me about Chet, the trainer and his credentials. Know him well? He wasn't possibly a disgruntled Chaz member that posted here at one time? I noticed you've pulled the ad for your website from your signature. Something's sounding a little familiar about this. Sad.
