Signs Your Dog May Have Epilepsy


Epilepsy or seizure activity can happen in people and animals. In fact, did you know that dogs can develop epilepsy or seizures? The disease is most often genetic or caused by an underlying illness meaning the seizure is merely a symptom. Seizure activity may be accompanied by abnormal behavior, howling or whimpering, excessive salivating, chomping, chewing, involuntary urination and involuntary defecation. Any time you see these actions in your dog and it’s out of the ordinary, please call your vet. Treatment is needed to control or stop the seizures. If there’s an underlying cause of the seizures then it will need to be found and treated. If it’s genetic then general medication used to control seizures may be given. Some breeds may be more prone to this illness than others. For more information about seizures or epileptic episodes in your dog or cat, please call your vets Lagrangeville, NY.
