OH, and she is a poop eater - though that has slowed down but she might have gotten some of Ringo's poop in the backyard yesterday; I just do not know. Have cleaned up back yard just in case.

Lucy did not have a seizure as you describe with the stiff body and falling over. She does get the spaced out look; then she has difficulty standing on her back legs especially. She does not fall over stiff.

I'm going to try to find that vegetarian food after work. She IS a picky eater and hence the canned food on top of her dry. But if I can find a little something to spice it up - like the baked cod - might work.

Still waiting on the freaking vet to call me back!!! Usually he's fantastic about that. Off to check on Vet.
ok try the vegetarian that might work with cod. If not then go with homecooking dr dodds liver cleansing diet.

You can also go on liver shunt mvd groups and ask if their dogs have ever had the back legs give out as i have not seen that ever happen before in mvd and mine has mvd.

Poop eating will not do it dd can be a poop eater too both dex and dd like demi poops hot off the press but we just keep her in room after she eats and she usually poops right after so we are more consciencious of it and try to avoid poop eating here - pineapple does work too but demi is so picky i have to trick her like it is cod to get her to eat the pineapple lol

also not a fan of turkey diets in dogs either
