    If you really are concerned...prove it by taking him to the vet and having him checked out.

    This is best seen by a vet. It could be an ear infection, it could be a neurological disorder, it could be many different things. It's always best to see a vet when your pet is having issues.

    Quite possible that your dog is having seizure activity. Seizures can last a long time and not all of them are the grand-mal.

    This dog needs to be seen by a vet. Dogs can diet from seizures, and at 10 months, she is in the right age range to start showing signs of epilepsy.
