Hi there and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to address your concern. If Jess is an older dog, this may be causing a lot of exertion doing this behavior leading to her becoming exhausted. If she continues to become dazed or this worsens, I would recommend having a veterinarian examine her and have her blood tested to make sure she does not have any underlying disease. I hope this helps guide you in the right direction. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
