I hope you never experience this...
My 15 month old Frenchie, Louis, was acting very strange and scary. His eyes were darting back and forth at a rapid rate. He was stumbling and acting drunk. He peed in the house and threw up on his way to the vet. After supportive care, blood and urine tests (which came back negative), we were sent home with the hopes that it wouldn't happen again. We watched him like a hawk for the next few days. Then it happened again! So this time we took him to an emergency facility with a neurologist on staff. They did an MRI and a spinal tap to see if he had a tumor, stroke or spinal infection. Thankfully those were not the cause. It was a bilateral otitis/interna. An ear infection in both ears! So now he's on antibiotics for 6 weeks. After two weeks he is back to acting like himself.
I would love to hear back from this community on how you care for your Frenchies ears! I don't ever want to go through this again! Also, what the cause may have been. Allergies?
