Her eyes would roll back into her head and sometimes she would fight to sit upright. We would talk her through it and stroke her body all the time. When she came out of it she would be knocked out and exhausted and would sleep for a while and then be fine. She lived to be 14 yrs old. The vet said she was not hard wired correctly!
That's basically the description of what our dog goes through on his seizures. He will rest a while like he's trying to figure out what just happened and then he gets up and go about his business. Our dog will start to come to us as well when he starts feeling it.
