I know first hand that you are an amazing mommy! Don't ever doubt yourself. We depend on our vets so much but I guess sometimes they let us down. You did all the right things and it is in no way your fault!

| I am so sorry about little Murphy. That just broke my heart to watch, so I can't imagine how your feeling. My first thought was a seizure. Snoot had a seizure for the very first time about two months ago. It's the only one I've ever seen but it was nothing like this. However, I read alot online and this does seem like one type that I read about. I never realized how many differen't types there are. I'm so sorry he's going through this. We will keep you guys in our prayers. Give your sweet little boy kisses from all of us.

| Started crying just from the first 10 seconds of the video. Prayers and big hugs to both of you. First give the vet the boot. Then a new one and a neurologist. Hope get better soon. Keep us informed please

| I don't blame you for being worried! I would take that video to the vet! That's how Lily was acting in the beginning of her seizure, but then she would lay down and her front paws would jerk, along with her body. It's so hard to watch, and you feel so helpless. Please do let us know what the vet says. You're in my prayers!

I Love My Lil' Punkin's Donating Member | Oh Caren, those videos almost had me in tears! My hubby and I both sat here and watched them. Girl, I honestly have no advice as I have never seen anything like that before...but I feel SO AWFUL for little Murphy! I seriously wanted to just cry watching those videos. I can totally understand how TERRIFIED you must be. It would just kill me to have to see him do that all the time If you don't mind, I will show these videos to Tatum's breeder and see what she thinks. She is a very, very sweet lady and has bred and raised Yorkies for YEARS...she is very educated and maybe she will have an idea of what this might be. Maybe she can give me some advice to give to you - although I do think it is best that you take him to another vet as you said you will be doing. SHAME on that other vet for telling you that you were over reacting!! I can't stand doctors/vets who act like they just DON'T CARE!!! It completely furiates me!!! I will e-mail the video links to Tate's breeder now and see what she thinks. Her hubby had surgery today, so I'm not sure if she will get back to me tonight, but I will let you know AS SOON as she does. We are sending HUGE hugs to Murphy and Mia! And you as well...you poor thing

And don't you dare apologize for the videos girl! I TOTALLY understand why you posted them and I would have done the EXACT SAME THING. It was just so sad to see him do that and I feel so sorry for the little guy But posting the videos was the right thing to do and again, I would have done the very same! Big hugs to you and the babies, and we love ya too girl!!! I will let you know AS SOON as I hear back from her!

| Wow, that was really hard to watch. Poor Murphy. You are NOT overreacting. I would get him to a new vet right away to find out what's wrong. Wow, I'm so worried about Murphy please keep us posted on how it goes. Miss Q and I are sending tons of hugs and kisses his way hoping everything works out and he gets the help he needs to get better. |

| I just wanted to say that you are brilliant for thinking of taking videos! My son had seizures (complex partial seizures) when he was in jr. high and I had a terrible time finding a doctor who would believe me (and his teachers). I wish I had thought of videotaping an episode. Hugs to you and prayers for Murphy. You are one smart, caring momma.
