I would recommend having Jock examined by a veterinarian right away. If his blood sugar level has gotten too low, that can cause weakness and we don't want that to get any worse. He could also have another reason for weakness that is causing him to collapse that should receive treatment right away, so I would have him evaluated as soon as possible. Good luck! I hope that was helpful and that Jock is fine. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
