i agree with the cataplexy comment. i have narcolepsy and i have cataplexy attacks and to me it seems more that than falling asleep. cataplexy is often triggered by emotions and a dog does get emotional over food. mine is usually laughter or anger. my nephew has even used the opportunity to make me stick my finger in my nose. I know what hes doing but cant stop him till the attack ends. poor puppy

Who would let a narcoleptic dog alone in the street? Some people are so mean.

Notice her legs how they are in the sitting positin for a dog...that means that sleep paralysis is taking play and then it comes narcolepsy

that's how Dian was rescued. Dian was a stray dog. Witnessing her collapsing on the road, my friend as a passerby decide to take her to the vet and finally found her a home.

@v4dy45 that's one aspect of the disease, it's called cataplexy, loss of muscle control. He's awake but can't move. Falling asleep, not being able to keep awake is another aspect.
