Oh my. His symptoms sound like possible distemper infection, toxini ingestion, or even rabies. I would highly recommend taking Sky to your local vet IMMEDIATELY for medical attention and some testing to determine the underlying cause. I really do hope that your pet Sky can make a full recovery! Best wishes and take care.
