We have an 8 year old poodle that is one of my husbands service dogs. He has seizures every great once in a while. right now he is just getting over a "mild" one. I feel so helpless as there isn't anything that we can do for him during one. It just breaks my heart to see him flopping around and stiffening up and drooling. :( Dang it I just want to cry. I know that he sees and hears nothing during the seizures as that is what the vet has told us. He isn't on any medications for them as he only has them 3 or 4 times a year. The vet says that they are probably caused by inbreeding way back when.
My husband turns into a nervous wreck when he has the seizures. All we can do is talk calmly to him and make sure that there is nothing around him that he can get hurt on.
Does anyone else have a pet that has seizures and what do you do when they are having one?
