Phoebe's going to the vet tomorrow!

Tonight I decided I would groom all the dogs, I took them downstairs to my grooming room and I had bathed Phoebe and was blow drying her with the high velocity dryer ( which makes her very nervous) and about 15 min. into it she suddenly started bobbing her head back in forth, I immediately turned off the dryer and got her out of the tub. I am wondering if this could have been caused from the stress of her blow drying. She is use to being groomed as she gets groomed often but she does hate that dryer, I will not use it on her again. Poor Phoebe, she already has incontinence and is not even 2 years old yet. I hope this never happens again but I will be calling my vet first thing in the morning to take her in, she is a regular there! I will post again to let everyone know what my vet says, if this has ever happened to anyone else please let me know!

We definitely hope all is well with Phoebe.

Duke goes to the groomer and they can not use the hairblower on him as he becomes overly petrified. Never thought of a seizure would be possible.  He has to air dry, so understand we have to drop him off early in the morning and not pick him up till 7 or so at night.  Wish there was another way to dry him quickly. Love him so much but he has curly hair that mats beyond our control as he hates being combed.

I'm sorry to hear that Phoebe had a seizure and I hope that was her last one. Thanks for updating us.

I am sorry I did not explain this very well but yes Phoebe did have a seizure, she was shaking her head back and forth and she was not coherent, the seizure lasted under a minute which seems like a long time when something like that is happening. I took her to the vet today and he confirmed that it seems Phoebe did have a seizure, he told me to keep an eye on her and if she has anymore to bring her in and he will do test but he did not seem overly concerned at this time. Hopefully she does not have anymore and this was a one time thing. I HOPE!  Hopefully I explained this better!

I, Like F, am confused about the situation.  Do you think it was a seizure?  What did the "head bobbing" look like?  Anyway, I hope she's alright!

I'm not sure what occurred? Phoebe was just bobbing her head? Did you think she was having a seizure or something? I don't quite get from your description why you are taking to the vet.
