Seizures common in puppies?
I got a dog from individual 6 week old boarder collie. Recently dewormers was fine on the two hour trip back home. She drank a lot of water when we got here at four am this morning she began having seizures last about 15 seconds then she has paddling on her feet and barks a lot She's probably have 10 of these since four am. Called the lady this morning said had not done this before I took her. How common is this? What could cause it? What do I do to help her?

If the breeder has a return policy in the purchase contract, then take the puppy back immediately. If your state has a lemon law, then take the puppy back immediately. If you are now stuck with this puppy, then take it to a veterinarian immediately.
Every seizure is causing brain damage. If this is a toxic reaction to the dewormer, your vet may be able to dilute the toxins in the body and stop the seizures.
No seizures are not common in puppies. *Border*. No decent breeder lets pups go before 8 weeks of age. Give her back to the person you got her from and go to a responsible breeder next time.
This is NOT common, and 10 seizures in a small puppy such as this is VERY dangerous. This puppy NEEDS to be seen by a Vet NOW. Get moving!
It's not common!! Get the pup to the vet before it dies!
TAKE HER BACK TO THE BREEDER AND LET THEM PAY THE VET BILL!! NO THIS IS NOT NORMAL!
