What Happened to My Puppy?

Hi, I was wondering what happened to my dog. He is 7 months old.

My dog Has been acting weird today. He is extremely lethargic and he couldn't get back up on the back porch though he was standing, then I took him out front where he slid off the lap and laid down and was breathing hard, we had found a tick in his ear and removed it, I got him a dish of water and tried to feed him but he would not eat and when he drank most if not all of the water he tried to drink dripped out of his mouth, we also tried to give him a baby asprin, after a about 1-3 hours he had a seizure. this all took place from around 10:30 to 1:30 ish.

I agree with Margot.
There is far more going on here than a puppy "acting weird" He sounds quite sick, I think. Do take him to a vet quickly, if you already haven't.
Even his inability to drink properly could be causing him to get very sick very quickly. Dehydration can set in fast with pups, and it can be very dangerous. It could even have been dehydration which caused his seizure (possibly)
If you get chance, post back and let us know how he's doing.

None of these symptoms sound good, esp for a 7 month old puppy.
You really do need to get into a Vet to have the puppy checked.
