Pet's info: Dog | Labradoodle | Female | unspayed | 1 year and 3 months old | 18 lbs

My dog has not been exposed to rabies but she just sat in a corner a minute ago and started foaming at the mouth and she tried to bite my brother She also pooped everywhere on the floor She has been outside but not long enough for something to bite her She has been around my brothers dogs but they don't have rabies. Could it have been a seizure Or does she have rabies She's only 5 months old and I love her my brother also said she looked like she didnt know where she was at I love this dog help!

I would be very concerned that Bella got into something toxic causing her symptoms, or she could have had a seizures. She needs veterinary attention now to diagnose the cause of her symptoms so she can be treated. Please take her into a vet right away.
