Often they will drink more with the panting and pacing, so will need to go out more, may be prone to accidents. There's a chance of diarrhea with the nerves, so I'd nix any treats that might make it worse. Also, be careful of open doors, fence climbing, stuff like that. Sometimes they try to take off to find their people.
