Please be gracious enough to find a moment to give a lot of members here on YT (that were gracious and took time and responded to your plea for advice or suggestions), an update on what has happened to your pup.

Did they rule out that it was hypoglycemic episode? My dog had various issues (low sugar, upper respirator infection, giardia) last week and she had the same symptoms but it is my understanding that this can happen with low blood glucose. She was shaking and her head just kept going back. If this happens make sure to help her head in case she throws up because if she swallows it back it can sometimes lead to aspiration pneumonia. We held our dog forward in case it threw up so that it came right out and not down her throat. I hope I made sense. It's hard to explain.

Do you have nutrical? that helps and they say you can't overdose on it but if you give your dog too much it will cause diarrhea. I would also look into the liver shunt like someone else mentioned. Make sure you check her gums frequently and if they are not pink you should give your furbaby nutrical. Nutrical is not a substitute for food so it's good that your dog is eating.

Wishing your dog a speedy recovery!
