This old Westie had been bathed with amitraz tick wash today as he was infested with lots of ticks. One hour later, he could not stand and his neck twisted strongly to the right side.

I gave him IV infusion of Hartmann's Solution at Queen's Veterinary Surgery. He recovered after 4 hours. Blood test showed low calcium. I gave him IV calcium and now he has fully recovered. He goes home. No complaint from the owner the next 2 days.
