obviously the best bet would be to take him to the vets but i know to well how expensive that can be and if u can sort the problem out yourself im all for it ! I have a yorkie b1tch and when she was about the same age she used to do the same thing and when we took her to the vets we found out it was because the calcium levels in her blood had dropped and we now give her 2 calcium tablets everyday to counteract the problem and she is just fine ! You can buy the tablets at any pet shop and there cheap as chips ! It cost us £180 at the vet for him to tell us this cause he did blood tests and gave her a calcium boost injection .
give hi a try wit hthe tablets and if he dosnt improve you will have to take him to the vet
good luck

sounds like you dog may be having some sort of seizure. best thing to do is take him to the vets and if possible video your dog when it happens so that the vet can see what is going on. It's so much easier to show them then explain it with something like this.

Take him to the vet ASAP.
He could be having heat stroke or a seizure. It's probably a brain problem. Good luck and give him lots of love.

Sounds like a seizure. He should be taken to the vet for evaluation and to get anti-seizure meds.

He might be having a seizure. I would take him to the vet and see what they say. It could be something else.

It could be a seizure disorder, or Lyme Disease, take to the vet as soon as possible.

Take your dog to the vet now.
We are not qualified to give a diagnosis.

Check his water bowl for whiskey.
Sneaky sods terriers, bet he refilled it with cold tea.
