Just wondering what type of dog you own. Here are a couple of ideas regarding the seizures:
First of all, I some types of dogs are supposed to be more prone to seizures. I am not sure which types they are, but you probably check online to see if your dog breed is one of those types.
Additionally (and take this for what you will): My daughter works at a grooming facility. Have you ever seen the blowers some of the groomers use to blow the water off the dog, after a bathing session? They are like supersonic blowers. They actually "blow the water off the dog", not just dry the dog. Then the dog may be put in a cage with less powerful fans aimed toward it. If the dog wasn't bathed at the groomer, possibly it is just nervous during the procedure. The dogs are usually put up, on a table. Some groomers are really nice. I understand that some are not. One of the groomers working where my daughter works, is not. She is not always that nice to the dogs, and occasionally dogs will end up with cuts from the electric clippers. One groomer decided to start the vacuum while another groomer had a dog on the table. Not all dogs like vacuums! Understand that this is a nationwide chain with grooming stations in their facilities. Obviously, not all groomers are good and not all are bad. The other groomers at the facility where my daughter works are patient and good to the dogs. The point here is that I, personally, would not expose my Border Collie to the dryers, alone, having seen what they are like, as I feel she would find it upsetting even if I was the one performing the drying process, in my own home. I hope I have not offended the groomers who love dogs and love their jobs. It is an important job, and lots of dogs need the services. It's just a note in case you aren't quite aware of what your dog may, or may not be experiencing during his trip to the groomer.
Now, another note:
Our Border Collie seized about 1 1/2 years ago. I was terribly upset, because I was concerned that this might become a serious and chronic problem. It was scarey for us, and for the dog, and occurred on Easter morining. I tried to think back, as to whether anything different had happened to the dog prior to the seizure. Shortly before the seizure, (a couple of weeks, maybe - not sure) the dog had gotten into some bones or other garbagey type of stuff. I had taken her to the vet, like a good dog owner might, because of the digestive distress it had resulted in. The vet put her on whatever medicine they use for calming the stomach down, along with an antibiotic (I could probably look both of these up, but don't have the names of the medicine immediately at hand.) What side effects do these medicines potentially have, I wondered? (Since that was the only thing that had recently changed). The vet did not seem to think that the medicine could have been the culprit, but after some online investigating, I found out that either one or both of the medicines had seizures listed as a possible side effect. I looked a lot of stuff up regarding this. I cannot absolutely say this was the cause of this upsetting event, just a good possibility. Although I do not suggest that people avoid veterinary care - vet care is very important to the health of our pets - I do think we should be educated where need-be. I, personally, have opted to err on the side of caution where some medications are concerned, with this particular animal.
Some animals are more prone to that type of thing, but if stress can add to it, then be careful with that. If you animal is on some sort of medication, maybe checking the potential side effects could be helpful. Then, there are the other causes of seizures, for which your vet would be your first resource. Hope this may be of some sort of help, but in any case, good luck with your dog.
