Scary stuff!

The physical exhertion this is interesting. And now that I think about it, Sully ran to the same room both times, too. Maybe they try to get to a "comfortable" room for them?

Could be.. If, like with epileptic humans, they can feel a seizure coming on (aura) they might just seek out something familiar.

My dog Max has had two that I am aware of....both while he was sound asleep at the time....he pissed all over himself the first time....that's when I KNEW that something was way wrong as he didn't even try to stand up and he NEVER goes in the house...EVER.....we went to the vet first thing in the morning the following day. He's had one since....the vet said that medication is availabe but as a last resort...which suits me fine. I don't want to have my buddy medicated for the rest of his life.

Oh but you nag me for forgetting an [ or / huh... By the way, aren't you supposed to capitalize the beginnings of sentences? Don't you have some kind of English degree? :nana2:
