Puppy looking frantic, unresponsive, and spinning. What should I do?

From your description it is possible that Roxy had a seizure. I would recommend having a veterinarian examine her so that the most appropriate diagnostic and treatment recommendations can be made. The sooner she is seen the better and if you need to be seen as an emergency I would. I hope this helps guide you in the right direction and that Roxy gets better. Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.

Hi there. This sounds more like a focal seizure, or some abnormal activity in her nervous system. Not responding to any stimulus indicates that her nervous system is overloaded and she cannot respond. The length of time the episodes are lasting is also concerning. I would recommend finding a veterinary neurologist to take her to. Your local vet may be able to make a recommendation. I would also try and take of video of her when she is having an episode to show the neurologist. I hope that helps and good luck with your pup.

It's possible there is something she is hearing, such as a rodent in the walls, neighbor, etc that is causing her to fixate on the spot. Trying to distract her with a treat or toy, or even soothing TV show may help. If she continues to fixate and a cause can't be found, seems in distress or pain, has other symptoms of illness appear, or doesn't settle down, having a vet checkup to rule out any health issues is always a good idea.

Peaches needs to see the veterinarian quickly. It sounds like this may be neurological and this is never normal. It can indicate many things including toxin ingestion, drug exposure, an infection in the brain, brain cancer, drug exposure, low blood sugar and other sinister reasons. A physical exam and bloodwork are needed to begin figuring out the cause and the best treatment. Other diagnostics may also be indicated. I hope it's nothing too serious and that she gets back to normal quickly.

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! While it is not possible to know for sure what may be going on, I would be concerned that this could be something serious such as a toxicity of some sort or just not feeling well in general. I would recommend that you have her evaluated by an emergency veterinarian for further assessment and treatment. Best of luck!

Oh dear, poor Koko! This sounds like an emergency condition. Even though she just ate, rub some corn syrup on her gums in an attempt to increase her blood sugar in case this issue is related to hypoglycemia (low blood sugar). She must then go to the nearest emergency vet immediately for evaluation because this may be a life threatening situation. I hope that all goes well!

Hi. This is definitely not normal. I would be concerned she has episodes of low glucose, a neurologic condition she may have been born with, or another possibility is an infection that is affecting her neurologic system. I recommend she get a full blood panel, try another food to entice her to eat more, and have a full neurologic exam done by your veterinarian or a neurologic specialist. Having none of her shots does put infection high on the list.
