One day my dog just started shaking all of a sudden and we didn't know why. It only lasted a few minutes and then he seemed fine but still scared. It's happened three times so far. My aunt thinks it was seizures, and was probably caused by the heartworm medication. Does anyone know what causes seizures in dogs or how to prevent them?
