Seizure
Well as alot of you know Jeter has been prone to seizures. We have been in and out of the vet for the last 2 years trying to figure out what is wrong. The vet finally came to the conclusion that he has low blood sugar. Typically a Beagles blood sugar should be at about 75 and Jeter is at about 40. This was causing him to have seizures. So we have gotten him new dog food and put a drop of honey on his food once a day while he eats. Well it had been about six months since Jeter experienced a seizure. He had even shed about 3 pounds and was feeling great from what we could see. Well last night while I was working on the computer I noticed Jeter was not acting him self. He starting convulsing and having a seizure. I ran and got him a glucose packet and tried to feed it to him. After about five minutes he finally was able to eat it. This seizure was different. Like nothing I have never seen him do before. I was pretty shaken up and would not leave him alone the rest of the night. I think he thought I was crazy. This morning he is back to normal barking at the deer that live in our backyard. Scott is going to take him to the vet today while I am at work. So just a little a prayer for Jeter that everything is alright.
