depression/neurological issues

[Becca D]

Hi, I am really concerned about my 1 year old shepherd/collie Sam.

He has become very depressed, lethargic, not eating like usual, his gait and his bark have both changed, his eyes are red and droopy and his back legs are rock hard... this began a few weeks ago after my cat died, he ran away several times (never for long or far), when he came back he was very unwell and had a couple of petit mal seizures in the week following, and since has developed this terrible depression. It seems to be deepening by the day...

I am waiting to hear from our local holistic vet so that I can book an appointment. But I'm worried it could be a neurological issue.. How do I find a pet neurologist in my local area (East Kootenays B.C) I am so scared for him, I only wish he could talk. Any other suggestions!!??
