I'm truly sorry to hear about your puppy's situation. Seizures in young puppies can indeed be alarming and may stem from various causes such as low blood sugar, infections, toxins, or congenital issues. Given the seriousness of the symptoms you've described, it's essential to seek veterinary care right away.

In the meantime, ensure your puppy is in a safe environment where he won't injure himself. Keep him away from stairs, sharp objects, and other pets. During a seizure, avoid restraining him, but you can gently move him to a safer area if needed. After the seizure, he might feel disoriented or exhausted, so it's best to let him rest in a quiet and comfortable space.

It's crucial for a veterinarian to examine him as soon as possible to identify the underlying cause and determine the appropriate treatment. They may conduct tests to rule out infections, metabolic disorders, or other potential issues.

Please take your puppy to a veterinary hospital immediately. If you have any more questions or need further assistance, don't hesitate to reach out. Thank you.
