I'm sorry that happened.

Our farm came w/ two Border Collies, the female had epilepsy and suffered
the same fate in our pond after we'd lived here 18 months. Her back legs
always gave out on her for several minutes after a seizure, we figure she'd
been swimming or drinking from the pond. She was my favorite.

My husband and youngest son (then 5 1/2) found her. ;( This was seven years
ago.

We have a Big 'A' animal graveyard on the east side of the barn.
