Question

I have a 4-1/2 year old border collie mix that occasionally acts strange. His eyes are dilated and he walks around the house as if he is looking for something. His breathing becomes heavy and he can't sit still. He is healthy otherwise and had his annual checkup about 4 weeks ago. Everything was fine then. His nose is wet and cold so he doesn't seem to have a fever.

He does have a blank, confused look and isSe non responsive to surroundings. Seems to be somewhat uncoordinated. It was the annual wellness exam, rabies vaccinek, lepto vacine, yearly wellness panel, heartworm antigen test. They also did a stool exam which was negative.
