My dog just had a seizure. What should I feed her and is it her ears?

Updated on September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Dog | Labrador Retriever | Female | 3 years and 5 months old | 52 lbs

I think my dog just had a seizure. She was doing just fine but suddenly she started acting weird. She started collapsing, shaking, drooling, fell down sideways and started moving hands and legs weirdly. She also pooped at the same time. What to feed after she has had a seizure. She has smelly and red ears, is the seizure because of this? I'm extremely scared please help. Thanks in advance

Thank you for submitting your question regarding Angel. It is possible that she had a seizure based on your description. I recommend that she she sees a veterinarian. It is important to have her examined and blood work assessed to look for a cause of the seizure of this is what she had. She also may have an ear infection, but this is unlikely related to the suspected seizure. If she is acting normal again, you can feed her her normal diet. I hope this information helps!
