Puppy crying, foaming, kicking, and bumping walls. Is it a seizure?

Question

Hello! I badly need your help. My dog named. tarzan, an almost two month old puppy started crying and when I ce to him, he is lying down, crying, kicking his legs with a white foam on his mouth. Me and my mother panicked then suddenly he came back to normal and thought it was okay and it was like a false alarm, he goes back to sleep and then after a few minutes he started crying again, running everywhere and bumping to thewalls with him and another white foam appears. These sceneario repeates. Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Male

It sounds as if Tarzan has had a seizure. Seizures in a young puppy are usually due to hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) or an underlying problem like a liver shunt. I would recommend taking Tarzan in to your vet as soon as possible. They will likely want to run some lab work to figure out what is going on. I hope this helps.
