"dizzy" puppy

my daughter has a 12 wk old mixed breed puppy that for no reason will start bobbing it's head and appears dizzy but still has focus and responds to it's name and otherwise is very healthy - eating sleeping actively playing etc...she lives up north and has little access to vets and is very worried about him...so called her "mommy" for help...any ideas?

Your daughter needs to get her pup to the vet ASAP for blood testing - have them look @ blood glucose, diabetes related levels especially if this is a small breed pup

Good luck to her

I would also want to rule out the possibility of this being a neurological condition.
