Hi, this is the first time I've posted in a while, but I wanted to know if anyone has ever experienced this with their yorkie: Bodhi, my 3.5 lb male, began to attack one of my cats. Pia, a younger 6.5 lb female, began to attack Bodhi. As I yelled for them to stop and tried to separate them, Bodhi became stiff and dropped to the floor. He stayed that way for about a minute (it seemed like forever!). He was completely alert and stiff as a board, his legs stretched straight out. I feared he may have suffered a blow to the head. But all of a sudden, as I walked away to get my phone, he snapped out of it! He just got up and went along his way. It freaked me out because he looked like one of those fainting goats. Has anyone ever experienced anything crazy like this?
