IIRC, the dog’s inner ear just goes bonkers for a bit and the brain gets so confused the poor beast pretty much just stops in its tracks for a bit. The last time our dog had it, she went limp on one side and tipped over like one of those fainting goats. What specifically happened was that he was sitting on my mom’s foot and when she went to nudge him so that she could get up off the couch it was as if his back legs wouldn’t work to lift him and he seemed to be staring off into space and was somewhat unresponsive. She said it didn’t last for more than a minute. He seems perfectly fine this morning as I’ve kept him upstairs with me and sent the other two dogs down with my grandparents. In other news, I really need to get some homework finished for tomorrow. Guess I’d better get on that… Oh, and **BooFae** , hope you feel better soon! --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/and-here-we-have-a-new-mmp/609687)._
