Heat Exhaustion/ seizures

Has anyone's OES ever have a seizure or heat exaustion? My OES just had one 2day and now im really really scared for it 2 happen again if im at home while my mom is out. I'm also wondering if maybe it didn't have 2 do with the heat- the doctor said it could be that or just something genetic. :cry: :( :cry: :(

~scared and confused~

This must all bel very scary for you! I would think that the heat could have caused a seizure - but the Vet should have been able to identify heat exhaustion. Was he seen by the Vet following the seizure???

It can also be caused by a reaction to medication - heartworm medication in particular! I would ask the Vet to run some lab tests to see what's going on! The Vet shouldn't just brush this off - seizures are serious and should be dealt with as such - especially to find a cause if there is one.

I hope all turns out well!
