Her bowel moments are normal. I just don't get it. Her last seizure was there at the ER at 3:30 when they were putting her IV in. Could it be stress related? And if so why all of a sudden?
It is so hard to say. I asked about age because when they are older it often has something to do with lesion on the brain.

She is young so it could be a toxin (even in the absence of other symptoms) or even epilepsy is now showing up. I just had a pup have two seizures over a weekend...about three weeks ago. None since. He is much older and the advice was the same...keep an eye on it. His blood work was also normal. The suspicion with him is a brain lesion.

One of our foster pups was turned over to a vet hospital (that is how he ended up with us) seizing. He was only 3 months old. His seizures went on for three days and there were SO many. Ended up fine in the end...it was crazy. He is no longer on meds and has been seizure free for months now.

Just so many possibilities.

As for stress....it won't necessarily cause seizures but could bring them on in a dog that is prone to having one.

I will keep her in my thoughts and prayers. Please keep us posted.
