I accidentally gave my dog an extra dose of Tramadol. Each tablet is 50 mg, and she is supposed to receive 3 tablets twice a day. I gave her a third dose. She weighs 69 pounds and is breathing heavier than usual but is sleeping. Do I need to do anything else to help her? How long will it take for the extra dose to be out of her system?

Our dog, Cali, is 3 years old and had an epileptic seizure 3 days ago. She has had three seizures in the last 8 months, with the last one being 3 months ago. The seizure lasted about 3 to 4 minutes, and she still isn't back to normal after 3 days. How long does it typically take for a dog to recover from a seizure, and what should we do if the recovery period is prolonged?
