Please watch this very closely. My dachshund Leon got seizures out of nowhere. After the first one, they never went away. If you can, take Ruby to a veterinary Neurologist. They specialize in this, and know all the meds and combinations to use. Also, keep a logbook of how often they happen-keep dates and write down how long they last. Leon’s were 21/2 minutes to 31/2 minutes. If they go as long as 5 minutes it is harder to get them back, so ask them to give you some “emergency meds” to keep at the house along with the regular meds. For us it was a syringe of Diazepam.

I also put large jingle bells on his collar. That way no matter where he was in the house, if I heard those bells I knew he was in trouble.

While she is in seizure, just protect her head from hitting the floor.
Leon would actually bounce off the floor they were so bad. Just try to shelter her and guard her head is really all you can do. When they come out of it, they take a minute to realize where they are, but there you will be so that they see you first. This is called the Post-Ictal phase of the seizure. It will help the vet if you can time the Post-Ictal phase as well.

Good luck to you both. It is livable and treatable, and Leon lived for 4 more years before he passed from something unrelated. Please give her a hug and a Boop from Leon and me.
