I'm just wondering if anyone here is dealing, or has dealt with the same thing. |
Seizures in Yorkies are usually an indication of an underlying health problem. Because of their small size, Yorkies are more at risk for a few health problems than are other breeds, and these disorders have the potential to develop especially quickly.
There's several possibilities as to why your yorkie is having seizures...from epilepsy to possible liver shunt, hypoglycemia, to tumors or brain injury.
Please take your yorkie in to the Vet...so you can find out exactly WHY he's experiencing seizures!
