My dog sometimes experience these “seizures” where he becomes uncoordinated, falls over, sometimes runs into things, and then eventually stops and poops right where he is. It doesn’t happen very often, but it did happen again today. This time his stool had these “white balls” in it. I was just curious if this is something that’s needs to be seen or maybe it was just something he ate. Thank you!

It is hard to tell for sure, but the picture looks like the poop may either be dehydrated and turned white or there may be a nutritional issue with Kenji. This can also be caused by something he ingested; however, the only way to know this is to see what the next few poops look like. If they are all white, then it is not something he ate and passed, but rather a consistent issue he is having that should be investigagetd y byour vet.
Seizures in young dogs are often a sign of epilepsy, which can be managed in many cases with anti-seizure medication. Bloodwork analysis however should be done to get an overall picture of Kenji's health and then medication options discusses with your vet. Generally if the pet has more than 1 seizure in a 30 day calendar period, or seizures lasting more than 3-5 mins, we opt for better control by placing the pet on medication.
I hope that Kenji's condition improves soon! Best of luck moving forward and take care.
