I live in a remote area and do not have access to a vet. Please Help...

From your description, it could be Dodo is having seizures. Unfortunately, this cannot be treated with home remedies, and he needs anti-seizure medication if that is what's happening. I'd drive to the closest vet to you to have him seen.
