My Dog has been having seizures
My parents just told me my dog (she lives w/ them) has had her 3rd seizure (in a year).
They had her in the backyard & my mom heard her yelping & crying & went out & she was on her side, shaking & jerking & her eyes were glazed. My mom started calling her name & in about 2 minutes she slowly got up & was fine.
It's happened before...she was walking and all of a sudden fell over & started yelping.
Has this happened to anyone? Any advice?
She's 8.

Re: My Dog has been having seizures
I would take her to the vet ASAP. They do have medication they can put your dog on.

Re: My Dog has been having seizures
My dog had heart disease and had syncope episodes due to the heart disease and it looks exactly like a seizure like you are describing. Make sure they check out your dog's heart. At first I thought it was a seizure too.

Re: My Dog has been having seizures
Unfortunately I had experience with this right before my dog had passed away. He had minor ones for 2 weeks leading up to it but nothing major. The night before he passed away he had a really bad one in the backyard. My mom dragged him in the house & eventually he came out of it. He unfortunately never woke up the next morning 
I would get him to the Vet ASAP. I know there are meds to help but they will run a bunch of tests.
