I just got this from my Emazing Dog tip of the day from www.emazing.com:
Seizures
Observing your dog in a seizure is a traumatic
experience,
as seizures are dramatic and occur unexpectedly. A
seizure
often involves a stiffening of muscles, loss of
coordination, heavy panting, and a period of
disorientation
following the seizure episode.
What can you do?
- Remain calm.
- Do not put your fingers into your dog's mouth.
Dogs
cannot swallow their tongues.
- Remove any dangerous or breakable items from the
vicinity
to prevent injury to your dog.
- Call your vet if the seizure lasts longer than 15
minutes.
You can help by carefully observing your dog to find
out
what might trigger a seizure, and reporting any
unusual
behaviors or situations to your vet.
