It is a congenital disorder of skeletal muscle which is manifested by the significant increase in temperature (hyperthermia) up to 45°C, accelerated and irregular heart rate (tachycardia and arrhythmia), hyperventilation, muscle rigidity and may result in renal failure and death.
In genetically susceptible individuals, a particular group of volatile anesthetics may trigger the symptome. The inheritance of the disease is autosomal dominant.

Lionhound
The Lionhound is a young breed with roots in the Rhodesian Ridgeback. Where the Ridgeback requires the signature dorsal ridge—and excludes ridgeless dogs from breeding—the Lionhound shifts the emphasis to the whole dog rather than a crest of hair. In this breed, the ridge-causing mutation is neither valued nor maintained; over time it is to be bred out of the population. Lionhounds are intelligent, active, and strong-minded—dogs with real charisma. They are friendly and loyal to their families without being pushy. Elegant and agile, they make sporty companions who relish both physical activity and a close, cooperative bond with their people.
