Canine Epilepsy

[Jack]

Given the recent thread concerning Buster I popped back onto my Staffies Forum & retrieved this post I made back in July when creating the Health section on there.

I don't know if it helps any of you but I always feel better if I know what I am dealing with and why so here's the thread along with the links I popped on there. Hope some of you may find it interesting and useful.xxx




On my way home today from the dentists I met THE most gorgeous red boy. He was HUGE!!! Extremely friendly (and that was just me! ) I discovered this lovely boy had been diagnosed as having epilepsy about 18 months ago. Chatting with his lovely owner I found out he's on drugs to help control it and she has to TRY and keep him calm to minimise the risk of a fit cue me TRYING to calm down too

I have passed on our details to his owner and hope she may join us on here but in the meantime thought I'd start a thread about the condition so you can all read for yourselves and who knows it might help someone else out there too so here goes...

Always useful to have information, I have found. Things are generally not so scary when you can understand what's going on.

Pleasure, there's loads more out there but they're the ones I posted on my forum. Hope it helps a little - VERY gentle and calm kisses & cuddles from me to Buster.xxxxx
