Our 8 year old chihuahua has had a few episodes where she looses her balance poops in place, pees on herself & vomits all at the same time. Its very scary because she freaks out, eyes pop out and she has these noises that seem like shes in so much pain. Is this brought up from food, stress...?

My goodness, what would she have to do for you to take her to the vet? It does sound like seizures. She needs to be checked.

It sounds like she's having Seizures to me! All the symptoms you described are very serious! This is nothing to fool around with. She seriously needs to be seen by a vet immediately. If this ever happened to any of my Chihuahuas, they would have been at the vets in a heartbeat! She should have been taken right after the first episode happened. If she's had a few episodes already, too much valuable time, has already been wasted. She's counting on you to help her, since she can't help herself! If she is having seizures, there are medications that the vet can prescribe for her, that will control the seizures. I can almost guarantee you, that this is not happening because of food or stress. If you haven't already taken her to the vet, PLEASE, for her sake, TAKE HER NOW!!! If your vets office is closed for the day, take her to an Emergency Vet, don't wait till morning, because it may be too late! I hope the poor thing is better soon!

how long has this been going on? how long will it need to continue before you start to worry about the poor creature? If this were to happen to my dog I would go to my vets house if need be and have her check out my dog because my dogs are all part of my family. I think its a requirement of dog ownership to adopt your dog into the family. Think of that dog as your child because for all intents and purposes it should be. You have to feed it, bathe it, and (very important) take it to a medical professional when it gets sick. I freaked out when I noticed my 12 year old Chinese Crested walking into things then I remembered that blindness is a breed trait and after 12 years she has a right to not be seeing so well. I moved the furniture back to where it was and resigned myself to the fact that I wouldn't be moving my living room around anymore.
Now as for your dog those who answered before me are right it does sound like seizures. I would take the dog to the vet ASAP for anti-seizure medication and observe the dog see if there's a certain thing that seems to trigger this happening. Once I've figured out what the thing is I would eliminate it from my home. That is the advice a friend of mine received and the vet will likely tell you to do the same thing.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE take you dog to the vet ASAP.

Is her stool loose? if so, she could have eaten something and it gave her diarrhea or in line with probability her nutrients would not agree together with her and he or she needs a diverse form of nutrients. as a ways by way of fact the peeing, if she has acsess to water often, she may be eating plenty and then peeing plenty as a effect. attempt to purely supply her water while she eats to decrease back on consistent eating. some canine, like my lab, purely drink for relaxing, then could desire to pee each and every of the time. Or, she could have a urinary song an infection that motives her to bypass often by way of fact while she does bypass, she would not empty out her bladder thoroughly. as a ways by way of fact the shaking, chihuahuas are naturaly form of keyed up doggies, so she ought to purely be worried, like my terrier, or she's feeling un nicely by way of fact she's going each and every of the time. once you're at an entire loss, you are able to call your vet and ask some questions and notice if he/she have any solutions. you additionally can ought to take her in if the vet is puzzled. purely save sorting out diverse circumstances out. good success!

She absolutely must be taken to the vet for this problem. No one can help you on this list and it sounds like she is quite sick.

Only your vet can get to the bottom of this, they may have to do blood tests.
