Scooterbug,

The strangest thing just happened. I was telling my husband about the links you left above. And OMG my granddaughter goes mama something is wrong with sparky (one of my 4) and I looked down intially thinking he just hurt his leg appeared he was favoring it, When I noticed he was shaking all over. Checked his pupils and they were dilated and his gaze was fixed. A SEIZURE, omg I never saw a seizure in a dog. I am a paramedic so I knew what I was see. It scared the living **** out of me. I called the vet. And Sparky started coming out of the seizure. Then he had another very small one. He will be watched very closely til tuesday. Dang holidays. Anyway he is sleeping on my lap right now and doing fine.

First thing I did was run out and grab the dog food bag due to I just bought one 2 days ago and it was in the garage and not throwed away yet. I am Happy to say I was wrong on the food. We had just changed it on the last bag and was going to buy diamond but the guy at the feed store talked us into this one instead. It is actually called Premium Edge. Thank God.

I think I am as stressed as Sparky is right now. He didnt even jump up right now to go outside with hubby......


I hope it doesnt happen again, and not before tues. However the vet that is on call tonight it less than a mile from me. Not my vet but not the KILLER down the road either.

Thanks for the information.
