Our 6 week old puppy was playing and full of energy, but when he came inside minutes later he went straight to sleep. In his sleep he started to make strange noises, which every puppy I have had made noises in its sleep, but all of a sudden he starts flailing around, poops all over the place and stops breathing. He had no pulse but continued to move. Is this parvo? Or a seizure? The ol lady is pretty broken up..

I would venture to say seizure or some kind of poison, i.e. insect, reptile or chemical. Parvovirus takes bout a week after exposure, then a couple days for signs to start showing, then a day or so later they start pooping a bloody stool, vomiting, lethargic, white gums and hide slowly dropping instead of like normal, fall almost immediately, which is caused from dehydration. The foul smelling bloody stool is caused from the stomach lining being stripped away, which is also why they can't hold food down and puke it back up. did you quarantine the rest of the pups?

No bite marks of any kind visible and he had been inside except to go to the bathroom in the yard. He went from playing energetically to deep sleep and then death. He wasn't kept around any of my other pups.

I've heard of that happening to pups that were on hogs. No explanation just dead. Did you have the pup around a hog?
No he was too young to even see a hog yet.

If he was running around it wasn't parvo. When they get parvo its no doubt what they have when they get it, it sounds like some kinda poison or just a unlucky day
