My 15 year old female chihuahua tonight all of a sudden became very disoriented and could hardly walk. She stated running into things and falling down. She seems to not know where she is. And she walks more to the right. What could be the cause of this and what should I do? I'm very scared!

It is time to make the decision. The dog had a stroke. They may get much better quickly but they will not have 100 % of the quality of life that they once enjoyed.

The exact same thing happened to my 15 year old chihuahua two weeks ago! Next day he was just fine. The vet gave him a thorough checkup but didn't give a clear diagnosis. After researching on the web I suspect hypoglycemia. Maybe you'd want to check out that possibility.
