I am so sorry that Murphy, and you are going through this. How long do these last? Thumbs up for the video...I wish I had done that with Winston, but fortunately I was able to get him to the vet during an episode. She initially thought it was heat stroke...but he was inside in air conditioning. His blood sugar was dangerously low...in the 20's. We are still trying to figure out which comes first the seizure or the hypoglycemia. We took him for a 2nd opinion, the new vet put him back on puppy food, 4 times daily. He has not had another episode since June23rd. I will keep your baby in my thoughts and prayers...please do keep us updated, I am very curious as to what your vet thinks. Winston started these at the age of 2...he was not tiny he weighed about 7.5 pounds, and he has always eaten well, never had low blood sugar as a puppy. This is what brought me to YorkieTalk...looking for answers...Winston is now 3 years old and weighs 7.8 pounds. So obviously he's eating well. I hope to never see this happen to him, or your Murphy again. I agree they are frightening...but NutriCal always brings him out of it. Good luck, best wishes...get well little Murphy guy!!!
