Yesterday evening I shocked the pool. It was up to the high eighties today. Jack retrieved from the yard a few times then into the pool for about a half an hour. Back into the yard for about fifteen minutes. Jack called it off and we went into the house. About a half an hour on the house Wife came home and we started dinner. I was not in the room when she called out Jack was in trouble.
He was not sitting up, but not laying down. Sort of hunched of and frozen in place. He was on the cork floor and had his toes spread and nails set. He was trembling and drooling and looked frightened.
I got a throw rug for him and he tried to move him onto it. When I walked away to get another rug he followed me. He was still trembling but not as much. He jumped up onto the couch but did not stay put. When I headed out to the door, he followed. He was outside for about ten minutes. At the end he threw up. That was about an hour ago. Since then he has been bugging me to feed him dinner in an ever increasing amount of annoyance.
I think this may have been a seisure. A small one. He never collapsed he was lucid, just frozen in place. Petting him and talking to him seemed to help. Not sure if swimming in the pool had anything to do with this or not. This reminds me a little of what happenmed last year.
I am calling the vet on Tuesday.
