Need info about dogs and seizures

And, if you switch up better brands, fuck the naysayers about upset tummies.


They get that way from being used to the same damn food all day every day.


Switch it up in case there is a recall, your pup will be better off if your brand is unavailable

Thank you. I will look into it and research more
As for the vet, I want to make sure these tranqulizers I gave him is not going to effect make him worse. If he can go without, by me judt taking care of him when he has a seizure and feeding him better name brand food, then I will do that.

Op I agree with the other posters Beneful Purina is not good food. The vet is also I'll informed and will probably recommend more bad food as well. The way I look at it is the better food the less medical bills down the road. By the way you can also home cook for your dog. It's really easy and not hard at all. My dog has seizure activity after eating chicken as well because it's high in glutamine which can trigger seizures. Any food high in glutamine can. I would go for beef . Try Sojos beef or honest kitchen Love which is grain free, my dogs love both.

Owners claim pets have suffered seizures and kidney failures as a result of Beneful

The only healthy diet for a dog is raw meaty bones

There is a book by a veterinarian Dr Lonsdale called Raw Meaty Bones

feed your dog human grade food along with a high quality kibble. reduce the vaccination schedule to just rabies every 3 years, stop with the flea meds. I have farm dogs, they have never been on a flea med regime and they have never had fleas. keep things simple and natural. follow the list of stuff not to feed dogs, like onions, grapes, raisins etc....


my little dog began having seizures around every 6 months. I made some changes I felt were needed like stopped all GMO. She stopped having the seizures after around 5 or 6 episodes. Never took her to the vet for them. vets will suck you dry. use them for real emergencies.

I have a little chiweenie. She started having episodes. I stopped using flea shampoo and flea treatments other than one of those main brands Advantix? Anyway, if you use one of those types of flea drops, you might want to change to another, some my vet said more benign than others, and just don't use any additional stuff. I think some of these are sensitive to them. I also gave her less little sweet treats. She has a little pituitary tumor that causes Cushings. I worried about that but her episodes are gone.

I had a GSD with Grand Mal. We went with the medication which heavily sedated him. Oh, that was hard, he'd be drunk for days to start. They worked for awhile but then the seizures started building again. We didn't do a catscan but the doc thought it was a brain tumor. I always kinda wondered if he could have Lyme's because of some of the other symptoms. I had started him on thyroid medication and three months later they began. Just wondered if there was a correlation...someone with another breed had the same thing happen.

With your little dog I'd just reduce any chemical flea treatments and don't overdo the drops. Seems like it might have taken a couple months for improvements. Now none at all. I bet that's what it is. Someone else here mentioned it too.

That's not a complete diet

allergic to something in the food, have seen it in another dog. dunno tho

If you live in the southwestern US (especially Arizona), check your pet for valley fever. It's a simple blood titre test. I lost a pet to valley fever who had similar symptoms.

I have been reading about diatameceous earth food grade and black cummin oil from the nigella sativa, for both humans and for dogs, you may want to look into this and see what you think. seems people are claiming great results.

Feed a diet of real food, human food. It's not that hard and for a small dog it's cheap.

CHicken, beef, turkey, rice, veggies.......so simple and healthy.

1/3 meat, 1/3 veggies, 1/3 grain (rice). So simple!

Dog food is literally toxic poison. Stop with the dog food immediately.

Get some books on the subject of what's really in the dog food, you will be amazed.
