Epileptic Seizures in Dogs

My two year old miniature dachshund has what appears to be two very short seizures first one July (18) and second October (18). Both times he was stressed and barking like crazy at another dog,turned to run away and fell losing control of all limbs and in a state of panic. About 10 minutes later he was able to walk properly again and about 30 minutes later he wanted to eat dinner but was continually scratching his way and ears.

The following day he is super clingy and won’t leave our side even coming to the bathroom when we go. Is this normal?

My dog bandit is a 130 pound mutt, ive had him since he was 10 weeks old, he started having seizures at four years old. He had two that night. I have never been more scared in my life. Our puppy athena alerted us just minutes before he began seizing, mind you this was bandit first time every seizing. His first one lasted about 2 minutes, he had foaming of the mouth, was paddling all four paws, shaking uncontrollably and defecated as well as urinated on himself. While i rushed to get shoes on and grab a blanket for him he began his second seizure. When he calmed down with that one about 3 minutes later, my husband carried him to the car and i rushed him to the emergency vet. He had one more that night before they got him under control. After he came home they had him on phenobarbital. He had a couple seizures here and there while he got used to the medication. About a month ago the worst thing that could happen did, bandit began having a seizure that lasted almost 5 minutes. once he came out of it and could walk we got him to the emergency vet, where they decided to keep him for the night. Bandit ended up staying for 3 nights, the twenty four hours following bandits first seizure were filles with multiple seizures. He had about 12 in a twenty four hour period. The only way they could keep him from having more was to sedate him. Finally after the 25th hour he had no more. Since coming home bandit now walks around whining, he is also having significant hair loss as well as weight loss. My big boy who had once been 130 pounds is sitting at about 105. The vet has no explanation as to why he is experiencing seizures the way he is as they gave him antibiotics when he first started having them hoping it was just from an infection. We sit with no answers and are constantly scared to leave him alone.

My dog started having seizures when he was about a year old. When they occurred every two week we decided together with the vet that was time to medicate. We went to a special clinic and he got tested for literally anything and then we got the diagnosis idiopathic epilepsy. So then we started the medication. First he got Pexion but that didn’t help at all. Now he is on Phenobarbital 25mg 3 Tabletts a day. We had periods with a seizure every 6 months, now are back at every 3 months or so. He is 8 years old now and has a great life despite of it. His seizures are not as harsh as others dog have them. He is conscious, does not get aggressive, can sometimes even walk (of course we don’t encourage him walk intentionally), does not pee himself (unlike the first time). He does however have generalized seizures and they can be a few minutes. For that we have diazepam at hand that is administered rectally. We came to know situations that can trigger a seizure and avoid those or make sure he has enough relaxation after stressful days. So all in all he has a happy life with occasional complications. Also he loves to take his medicine because it means turkey ham ;)

We have a cockapoo who only has a seizure when he gets bathed (which we no longer do, we just use a washcloth here and there). He begins to tremble,his eyes bulge, he loses his bowels, stiffens, will fall over and doggie peddles. It's traumatic for all of us. How do we fix this so i can bathe him? It's been 2 years. He's developing a large amount of skin tags and i think it's the oils on the skin. I have to buzz him because no groomer will without bathing him first. Help!

Yes, he gets very close to me when he is going to have one. In between seizures he lacks his paws. After he is very tired, thirsty, and vomits at times

We have a Chesapeake Bay retriever who is 1 1/2 years old. The end of March of 2018 our pup started to have seizures. Had 4 the first time and we took him to the ER Animal Hospital, they did blood work and stated it was not environmental, and suggested an MRI and Spinal Tap. He has since been on Phenobarbital, and Keppra (generic pill) now and MRI and Spinal Tap were just completed this week. He have taken him to a neurologist for animals and she also stated MRI and Spinal Tap just to rule out other items. The MRI came back normal but the Spinal Tap his WBC was 8 and the neurologist said 5 was normal. Now she wants to do some more blood testing for Tick diseases, Limes disease, Meningitis and Protozoal infection. This is getting very expensive and after his MRI and Spinal Tap, he can't walk very far and we used to walk 3 miles a day.

Currently on
Phenobarbital 60 mg 1 1/2 pills every 12 hours
Levetiracetam ER 500 mg 2 pills ever 12 hours - recently has been drooling which he usually has seizures when this occur res. Neurologist stated to give him 2 pill extra at one time during mid day for 3 days to see if this helps with drooling

We live in DFW area of Texas and is current on all his shots

hi, about a month ago our 4-5 y/o rescued blue heeler had his first cluster of seizures after 3 months without any (he had started Zonasimide and it seemed to be working). he's been on phenobarbital + zonasimide since, but the seizures are still happening every 1-2 weeks, and every time it happens they're in clusters. giving him 1 extra dose of pheno makes the clusters stop, but idk why they keep happening. he's also shedding WAY more than he used to, he's gaining weight, his poop starts out solid but by the end of the day it's liquid, he drags after 15 mins of walking (he used to be able to go for an hour no problem), and he's even more tired and apathetic than he used to be--he's always been a lazy dog and would only play when really excited, but now he won't play at all, ever. he also whines VERY often, even after we've let him outside, fed him, given him attention, etc. it's like he's constantly in pain and he looks sad all the time, and he sleeps probably 20 hours a day. also, he has severe muscle atrophy on his front right limb from past trauma, causing him to limp, but even though we walk him for at least 45 mins a day it will not get better and he won't put weight on it, but it doesn't seem to hurt him to put weight on it?

we are so distraught that something seems wrong with him, but he just had bloodwork done at the vet last week and all of his values are within the normal range. in the past they've ruled out all medical causes for the seizures besides epilepsy or a neurological issue, and his leg has been ruled as just muscle atrophy. what is wrong with him and why is he so sad? ): he acts like a senior dog but he's only 4 or 5 years and we're scared that something is underlying all these issues.
