My dog, Jack, a 6-year-old chocolate lab, started limping on his right rear leg after chasing a ball this morning. He didn't yelp, and there doesn't appear to be any wound. Jack had hip and knee surgery on his left leg 3 years ago. What should I do?

My dog, Fonzie, a 1 1/2-year-old, just had a seizure. It lasted about 2-3 minutes, and he was thrashing, foaming at the mouth, and accidentally peed. He was panting afterward and drank quite a bit of water. This is the first time he's had a seizure, and he didn't get into any medicine or chemicals. What should I do, and what could be the cause?
