Don the dog and the heat regulating diet tale
The article explains how Don's body heat is regulated by the diet and inoculations. In warm springs he is cooled by thinning his blood, while Arctic huskies gain heat from a liver serum or raw fish. One pound of raw fish raises a husky’s body heat by one degree. Mr Friswell fed Don live fish for amusement, causing fever until a vet explained the heating effect of fish.
