Hi,
To everyone who posted about my Roxie's seizure like behaviors.
I did take Roxie to the Vet. I go to Banfield in Petsmart.
I brought my video and showed the doctor.
After a close exam, she told me she was going to test for Liver Shunt as it's common in small breeds, especially yorkies.
She did blood tests and tested Roxie's electrolytes.
All tests (CBC, Internal Organ Function, & differential) came back normal.
Roxie did rest a bit more and was back to herself later that day.
No further episodes since.
I have been reading more about this online and have a list of things to look for and tests to ask for if it happens again.
The only thing I can think of is that she may have gotten into some chemicals or plants outside.
We don't spray our lawn, but neighbors do.
Thank you for all your help.
I appreciate the connection.
Roxie's Mom,
Rosary
