I woke up 'bout 10 min. ago to my dog sort of running across the room...(Ruby)
I was half asleep too but it looked to me like she was having a stroke or something, she was sort of running but falling into her right side...?????
She ended up toppling over and she rolled and then I thought she was having a seizure....Her eyes were closed (I think...I was half asleep and in a rising panic...) and she looked like she was choking??.....I knelt down and she did start choking, then she rolled over and looked at me practically right away, I pulled her up to see if she could stand and yep......She was absolutely normal.....I'm making her a vet appointment for today or tomorrow if I cannot do today ---- In the meantime does anyone have any clue what happened here??????
I'm still trembly....But she seems absolutely perfectly fine now....
She's a 9 yr old boxer, only known health problem is her low thyroid, which she has had for about 4 yrs....
Anyone have any ideas?
I am not sure how serious this is....Its 2am atm...It looked serious at the time but she is just curled up sleeping now....Agh....Anyways...Any tips/advice/opinions? would be appreciated until the vet opens up in the morning.....Think I am too afraid to go back to sleep.
Thanks in advance...
