Why is my senior dog circling, disoriented, and having seizures?

Question

Hello Petco Pet Education Center; Our 14 3/4 yr old Cockapoo is having symptoms for about 3 days. They are circling to the left. At times acts disoriented and walks into things. Sometimes she couldn't walk but that is improving to she can walk pretty well. She has had 1 generalized seizure lasting 2 minutes or so. Her eyes don't appear to be flicking horizontally or vertically. Agitated at times. I know its alot of symptoms. Thanks for the help. Pet's info: Dog | Cockapoo | Female | spayed | 14 years and 7 months old | 25 lbs

The circling and seizures indicates that there is a disease process in the brain causing these problems. I'm sorry to say, but these are usually due to a severe problem (like infection or cancer) that can be life-threatening. I recommend you take Sissy to the vet as soon as you possibly can, because she really needs help fast.
