All Yorkies should have one, but especially if they have had a seizure.

Blood sugar drops very low during a seizure which is why her gums were white. Giving a tiny bit, about a teaspoon, of vanilla ice cream or nutrical as you did can help her recover more quickly.

What you are seeing now, her wandering around smelling, is common after a seizure. They are disoriented for awhile afterwards.

Lady has been an epileptic for nine years. This website has been my "bible":

Canine epilepsy and diseases that cause seizures in dogs
Yes, I agree with Lady's mom. When Tink was having seizures, she would walk around and smell everything and seem a little lost after the seizure. I also gave her nutrical after the seizures. She hasn't had one since August.

I too think you can wait now until Monday to get your baby to the vet. Good luck.
