but she has suddenly gone ok and lying down



help - what do i do??????? she seems fine now - hasnt bin ill today - and going asleep now

please help im terrifid incase she fits on me

Suze, I think the only thing you can do is take her to the vets. If you don't have the money, is there no-one that can lend it to you?

no - my mums not in!! im 18 - i have an overdraft on my bank i can use

but she seems fine now thought!!

it was so scary though - i dont kwno what happened
#
her pupils kept going bigger and smaller for a minute or two and she kept staring at the ceiling and wass disorientated

She needs checking over though surely ?
I would,You need to make sure shes ok as well as putting your mind at rest.If something worse happens you would never forgive yourself,Be on the safe side and get her booked in.
Hope shes ok.

Hi Suze, the first thing to do is to keep calm or you will distress your dog . This sounds very much like a 'petit mal' and you do need to see a vet .

Make a diary of the time/date/details of the event and if it happens again.

Here is some information for you.

...another thought is has she had access to any toxic substance?

shes ok now though i dont get it

it was frightening - shes laying down now and going sleep

it reminded me of millie a couple of weeks ago

now you come to mention it - its sorta smililar but no - u know the diorrientation part

it cant be a siezure she was standing up - just staring blankly into the ceiling and her eyes going mad - pupils large then small

I think it would be best to get her checked out Suze!!
I used to have petit mal (as mentioned by Minihaha) and with out wishing to sound blunt you can indeed have a petit mal episode standing up, Petit mal isn't a full blown, drop to the ground seizure like you may be thinking of.

I would honestly recommend getting her checked out though, please keep us updated on her condition

ok - im going to wait until my mum gets home - should be about half past 2 and she can drive to the vets if she wants to go

if it happenes again before half 2 -no questions asked - i'll take her

she seems fine though - but her eyes were so scary - i could see the whites in her eyes and they looked like they started to glaze over

do you think millie and sam have a connection in their illness??? i have a third dog - and i hope to god he dosent get anything

I used to get that glazed look too, in humans it can be likened to looking at someone who's daydreaming. I was on medication for a few years but was lucky enough to grow out of it.

If you do decide not to take her to the vet today I would strongly suggest you book an appt for Monday to get her checked out as the vet will hopefully be able to check out if there is any link with your other dog.
