 Syncope
My poodle, Elvira, had congestive heart failure and every once in awhile she had an episode which my vet described as syncope. The first time she had it she just fell over and I thought she was having a seizure but it was not. Another time she just stopped in her tracks for a minute and did not move and then came out of it. These episodes came out of the blue but were not epileptic in nature. They must have been heart related because she never had them until she got older. I don't know if they were related to her heart meds but they happened intermittently for no rhyme or reason and only occasionally. She did not seem any worse for wear when she came out of them. |
