it was hot today and my dog was wrestling with another.shortly afterward he seemed like he couldnt find his balance, started drooling (he never drools) staggered back and forth for a bit, i picked him up and he was still trying to walk in place for a bit, walked in circles, knocked over his water bowl while walking slowly, slightly sideways, and seemed to be somewhere else. i thought he was seriously dying, but shortly thereafter, he started playing and running around normal. i found him on the highway about 6 months ago, and noone knows what breed he is, but is apparently about 12 or 13 years old.

recent trouble
Posted on 2008/10/08 by michellechoco was laying on the floor it appears as though he fell. he looked like he was having a siezure though had dry mouth. he was wiggling alot, i calmed him down by laying next to him on the bed petting him. after the next few which had time between of about 20 min of the same symptoms after witnessing what seems to be uncontrollable muscle spasm like you would see in a siezure there were groans from abdominal area right before hand right before the last two i tend to notice there was a stomach rumble that happened, in which made me believe he wasnt having siezures but it seemed like he was just in extreme pain which made him do the "fish" i walked him outside...

Your Opinion
Posted on 2008/10/19 by UserI have an approximately 10 year old biscon-poodle mix dog that is taking Proin Drops 25 mg. I give it to her twice a day. It seems to work most of the time, but sometimes she is still dripping. My question is, will this ever get better? Will she always need this medicine, and do I have to increase the amount I give her over time? Any side affects? She has seizures, (not severe enough to take meds) she is deaf, is now having trouble with her eye, and has had (last year) 14 teeth pulled. My poor little girl!! I would appricate your opinion. Thank You

Lost puppy and want to know why
Posted on 2008/02/11 by UserMy husband and I got a Siberian Husky from a pet store 4 weeks ago. She seemed sick since the day we got her, we thought it was because she was stressed. She had diarrhea. We took her to the vet several times because we didn’t want her to get dehydrated. He put her on some different meds. Nothing helped. Wednesday night (30th of January) she started to act really freaked out and crying so we thought she was in pain. We took her to the vet on Thursday and she started to have many of seizures in one hour, at this time I was balling because I didn’t know what was going on. The vet took her home to his house overnight to watch her. He called Friday and said he...

Cat having unexplained seizures
Posted on 2008/02/22 by UserOur cat, Courage, has been in good health for the 6 years we have had him. He is playful, muscular and in good shape. He eats all the time, has a shiny coat, etc. Today, out of nowhere, he laid down adn shook for about 15 seconds. After the shaking, he stiffened for about 20 seconds more. He has done this three times since in the past few hours. As soon as the seizure is over, he runs off and plays like nothing happened. Any ideas?

Random biting from well behaved and submissive whippet
Posted on 2008/04/02 by UserSorry this question is a bit long. Here are the details about our dog: -age 3 male whippet -we've had him since he was 2 years old -former owners got divorced and decided to give him up for adoption -very well trained, obedient, kind -submissive if tested (ie we can put him on his back, take his food, etc) -is not free fed -gets lots of exercise -sleeps on the floor in another room Here is our current issue: -About 2 months ago, our dog was lying on a chair at my parent's house relaxing and my 8 year old cousin went over to pet him. He snapped at her and left a small cut on her cheek. No one saw if she had been bugging him or not so everyone said it wasn't...

Mongrel having seizures
Posted on 2008/05/06 by UserMy dog a mix with a springer and a lab, has these seizure type things that have been getting worse over the past month. We just got him from the SPCA a month ago. He curls up his back and cannot walk. He drools a lot and starts breathing really heavy. He also crys very quietly. And is very disoriented for about 10 minutes. After words he is really tired and loving. I am very worried I am taking him to the vet today.

Hi, Egor is 16 yrs old, and now having seizures? He gets all contorted & stiff for about 30 seconds. Then when he is done, he is totally fine! I thought if you have a seizure you are out of it for at least a little while. He just had a full blood panel done. The vet said to come back in 2 weeks to test for leukemia again, because he had a weak pos.. So I did, and he was cleared. Now I don't know what to do. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Christy
