Dog people

Question- has your dog exhibited anxiety in the heat, to the extent of sleeping all day, freaking at weird things, etc?
Boomer is concerning us. He does walk with Jeff in the morning, but hasn't been eating squat.
His nose is wet, he isn't puking or anything, just...
Well, then

Is he drinking and peeing? I know that animals exhibit heat exhaustion in different ways. I would probably take him to the vet if it goes on much longer.

Our 12 year-old Aussie is not seemingly bothered by the heat. She will ask to go out, then lay in the sun, while it is 105 outside. She won't stay long and then come in, but she is acting normal. She wanted to go out earlier to fetch the frisbee. She did about 10 fetches and then I brought her inside. She was fine.

Libby is taking uncharacteristically long naps and sometimes doesn't eat all her breakfast, but she is still active and alert. I believe that as the temperature continues to drop, she will revert to "normal," whatever that is.
