| I lost my beautiful Yorkie Poo from a seizure I lost my beautiful Yorkie Poo from a seizure which came on suddenly Sunday. She had a grand maul seizure Sunday morning and a second one several hours later. I brought her to the emergency center and they gave her an anticonvulsant medication which seemed to minimize the severity of the seizures but she continued to have mini seizures. Monday they gave my dog Cortizone pills and pain medication and she passed away several hours later. She had no symptoms and seemed to be a very healthy active dog. On Saturday she was in the middle of the street and I had to pull on her collar to get her to move out of traffic. I'm wondering could a neck injury possibly cause seizures. She weighed 7 pounds and was positive for Lyme disease. I am devastated and can't understand how a healthy dog can die within days. She seemed to put her face up and was uncomfortable bending your head down. Her eyes were bloodshot like she burst a blood vessel and were dilated. I would appreciate any comments on this post. |

| When you say positive for lyme disease, was that a previously diagnosed illness or first discovered when you brought her to the vet on Sunday? I ask only because for the first time in my life, 50 years, found ticks that originated in Western WA on my dog this summer. Ticks in Western WA are pretty rare, not so much this year since we had the driest and warmest summer on record this year. Very sorry your pup died. |
