Fortunately, I don't have this problem, but have read articles on this. As in humans, there are various types of epilepsy. Your pup doesn't have to have grand mal seizures to make you think he isn't having one. Definitely ask your vet, as the treatment these days is simple and effective. It is very unpleasant for both of you I'm sure and you want to assure his health and safety. A big hug and smooch to him
I have a golden rertriever who will be 4 years old in a couple months. There were a couple times that he has was just standing there and then fell over side ways. His legs stay straight out. He cannot raise his head off the ground. His tongue hangs out of his mouth. And his whole body shakes. He still seems to be able to focus his eyes on you but cannot get up or move other then the involuntary shaking of his body. He does not kick with his legs or move his back. Just shakes. Does anybody have a clue what this could be? We thought maybe epilepsy but then I don't think he would be able to focus his eyes on you.[/QUOTE]
