First of all...I want to thank you all for your thoughts...opinions...advice and prayers for my parents little Chihuahua... Bear. He’s doing a little better. He is walking around some...and I have been giving him water from a syringe since yesterday...today we got him to eat some baby food...it’s chicken in chicken broth. At first he wouldn’t eat it so I added a little water and made it REALLY soupy and he ate it off of the spoon! His blood work came back normal to very good. This is what happened....he was fine on Sunday night/Monday early morning...at about 1 am. He was acting fine. He woke my mom up howling on Mon morning. He was acting really weird...just sitting in one spot looking like he was in a daze. Then he started to shake. We gave him some sugar because he’s prone to low sugar attacks. He seemed to feel a little better...but still just sat there not looking good. He was really stiff and kept his tail tucked in. Twice yesterday before we took him to the vet he yelled out like he was in pain. When we got to the vets office it was packed...wall to wall...all dogs except one cat...most of the dogs were really big...including the one who’s owner sat down beside my mom...this dog weighed over 100 pounds and went after EVERY dog that moved! I know it scared Bear because he’s not used to big dogs. I was up at the counter checking Bear in...and some girl came up and told me that my mom said Bear was in a seizure...so I told the girl at the desk and thy took him right back. The doctor told us he might never have another seizure...but you can never tell...he said he won’t put him on meds unless he has 3 or more a month. I always keep an eye on my parents dogs...but I’ll keep a closer eye on Bear now. He is usually on my dad’s lap so I’m sure he will notice if something goes wrong. But like I said...he’s doing better today...at least he’s getting some water and food in him...if he’s not eating and drinking on his own by tomorrow...I’m calling the vet or just taking him back in. Oh...and he’s wagging his little tail and doesn’t look like he’s in a daze now! Please keep sending good thoughts and prayers for him...Thank you.
