As I mentioned above, cluster seizures refer to the frequency of seizures, not a particular physical behavior during a seizure.

Cluster Seizures: Two or more seizures occurring over a brief period of time (minutes to hours) but with the patient regaining consiousness between the seizures.

Cluster Seizures are multiple seizures within a 24 hour period time. This may also be life threatening.

Canine epilepsy and diseases that cause seizures in dogs

How old is Elvis?

I'd make that appointment with the neurologist asap if I were you.
Elvis is 2 1/2 the vet said that is a common on set time for seizures, and that the mildness of seizures can vary, but call me naive I saw a video of a dog with CECS and I was like OMG that's what Elvis did! Apparently Yorkie's don't get CECS though, either or its neurological and epilepsy, the vet did many tests on him. I'm getting information on the vet neuro tomorrow and calling, I'm wondering if Elvis knows he not right and frustrated or what its not a dramatic change but I've only had him two months he came to me from a breeder who got him from another breeder, the breeder I got him from swears he has never done this before, I believe her as she bred him and now has two pups she has to adopt out instead of selling as they can have this issue also. I've heard through YT and various other internet information the breeder who bred Elvis had to end her breeding line for genetic issues, which she emphatically denies...but literally all this in what 5 days now. I'm still reeling from it all a bit and doing research research research preparing for the meeting with the neurologists`.
