There are alot of reasons for it, but without the vet running blood work it would be impossible to tell what the cause was or if it is treatable.

The vet ended up telling me that my dog could be on anti seizure medication, but those may cause additional problem. He said that the seizures were not a sign of other problems which was good.

Have the vet run some tests if you can.
I think they're waiting for him to recover before doing tests. He's supposed to see a neurologist on Tuesday. He'll be at the hospital till then atleast. I'm hoping it's something simple like medication to fix it. The seizure was pretty severe and went on so long that it just really got to me.

It's weird in a way. I'd rather be in his position than him.
