Scary episode with Dekka.. need ideas.

I'll be thinking good thoughts that it is a one time thing and you will just spend the rest of your life wondering what it was. I will go with the crowd though and say it does sound a lot like the micro seizures my friend's dog used to have - right down to the going after another dog at the beginning of it.

Partial seizures often manifest as conscious but shaking. That would be my first guess tbh especially with the repetitive leg motions.

I know dogs and people don't always do things the same--but my daughter's seizure are partial complex--repetitive behaviors while she maintains consciousness. And then she falls asleep--what you described with Dekka could certainly fit that description.

Thanks for all the good thoughts. She has been her regular self all day. Ran around Freehold's farm a bit with Elwood, Smudge and Cider (no jumping.. well mostly no jumping..)

Elegy.. getting a video is a good idea, but wow I was so panicky at the time and freaked out. Hopefully IF this ever happens again I will remember.

Ugh that's frustrating and scary! I have no advice but my first thought was also seizure based on what you wrote.

Lots of good vibes for Miss Dekka!

Sorry I didn't see this before......

It kind of sounds like seizures to me too I hope she isn't in pain.

Sending good vibes and prayers Dekka's way.

The video is a great idea. I tend to lean towards the seizure thing too, but hard to really guess.

How is he doing now? What did the vet told you about what happened?
