Poppy has had a fit - help please Hi Can anyone help, my Yorkie Poppy is due in season very soon and today she had a fit, going stiff and twitching then being dazed after it. I just held her and fussed her and talked to her to comfort her and she is fine now. Has this happened to anyone else, I have heard that it can happen before their season somewhere I think but can't remember where. Thanks Angie |
This baby needs to be seen by a vet asap....there is a reason for this to be happening...it needs to be diagnosed. This could be a chemical imbalance.....it could also be neurological. I hope you do not plan on breeding this angel..... |
I agree. Please rush her to the vet. Keep us informed what the vet says |
agreed please be sure to let us know ...hoping everything is ok. |
Get her to the vet...today. Something is not right and I have never heard of a little girl doing that prior to going into heat. |

Thanks for the replies, will book her in asap. And thank you Yorkiemom1, but I said she was in season I said nothing about her being bred. |

good luck at your vet and please keep us posted. I pray your little one is ok. |
Just wondering if this little dog was seen by a vet and what the outcome was..... |
checking in to see if poppy is doing better today..... |
Has this baby been seen by a vet yet? |
I am aware that hormone changes during heat cycles that have triggered seizures which are neurologically based so no it's not "normal" and part of the course for controlling it is spaying the animal. |
hi, im new and just seen your thread, my benji has had fits in the past. the vet said to stay calm and reasure them and dont panic. benji always throws up after his fit and needs the toilet. the vet said he is epileptic and not to worry. |

There are several different medical conditions that can cause seizures, not just epilepsy. Clyde is an epileptic ... but that was only discovered after a series of testing to rule other medical conditions out. My vet prescribed a medication that is supposed to help get his seizures under control. How often does Benji have these fits? Your vet should have informed you more than just saying "don't worry". Seizures in small dogs can be deadly, especially if they last more than a couple of minutes. I don't want to freak you out. Especially since I am not a vet, nor am I qualified in any way to give medical advice. I also have never met or seen Benji. I'm just saying that if your dog is having seizures and all your vet said was "don't worry about it" then I would consider looking for another vet. I hope Benji doesn't have anymore fits. Feel free to private message me if you want to talk more about seizures. (Welcome to YT, by the way!) |
