I have a 3-month-old Malchi (Chihuahua Maltese mix) named Kloe. She had her first seizure after ingesting a small piece of a marijuana joint, followed by several more seizures. After a vet visit, she was given medication for seizures, but she now has a wobble in her head and struggles with her back legs. She is eating, drinking, and playing normally, but the wobble persists when she is walking. Is it possible she has slight brain damage from the seizures?

He was normal for two days but then became lethargic again with some vomiting of mucus, and now the initial symptoms have returned. I also gave him his heartworm medication yesterday.
