Thanks for the advise. I talked to my vet again and he said to keep an eye on her for now. She hasn't had another one since that horrible night. She's plsying, eatting & drinking and is back to her normal happy self. He did say something about a bile acid test but as long as she's doing fine he doesn't see the need for it right now. He also said that he's seen that quite a bit in dogs of all sizes and they go on seizure free. It's still nothing I take lightly and if I notice the slightest wrong I will definitely take her right in and do any test they feel needs to be done. Again thank you for responding. I was a mess and felt hopeless. Even though I have no answers on why this happened I'm just happy she's ok
