There are many reasons for a dog having seizures. Have you any other information about anything different that may of led up to this? Be a detective and search your mind for any clues of something not quite the same in the past few days. Also if you put -->dogs seizures--- in your browser--It brings up all kinds of sites on the subject. Checking out all the info in these sites might also help trigger your mind for clues to anything different that may of happened leading up to this seizure. You have to be aware of the possibility of epilepsy--I am sure it is mentioned in the sites too. You could also put--> dogs epilepsy-- in your browser. You should have Paddington checked out by a vet--especially if he has another one soon. If epilepsy, will require medication to try and control it.

I hope it is something that can be taken care of easily and it doesn't happen again. Good luck.

And please keep us posted as we worry about these things, esp. if we never hear back. Give Paddington a big hug!

As CorkyMax says there can be many reasons for a seizure but some of them can only be treated with medical assistance from a vet. Please get him checked out as soon as possible and, as said before, do let us know how he gets on.
