Dr. Melanie, BVSc MS · Accepted Answer

A seizure is very concerning, and Pooh Bears needs to see a vet for this asap. If he seizures again before you can seek vet care: - Don't put your hands near his mouth - Keep some rubbing alcohol in a spray bottle to spray on the pads of the feet for cooling - Monitor the dog at all times during the seizure to ensure that he cannot hurt himself by crashing into furniture, etc - If the seizure continues for more than 5 minutes, seek emergency care immediately
