  1. I would suggest you see a new vet. Your dog should be having blood tests done to test the med level to make sure that it is high enough to control her seizures. As for her being in any pain, I doubt it, I have have seizures and when I have one I am not in any pain it is just very frightening.  


  2. Death awaits him or her.... if you don't take him to the vet. my uncle HAD a dog that kept having seizures. it was so sad because while he was shaking, we had to hold him down so he wouldn't injure himself more. Dont wait until your dog ends up like my uncles dog nitro.

    YES your dog is in pain when this happens. he/she goes into shock.

    brain cells use electrical and chemical signals to communicate, which can either activate another neuron or shut off a neuron. Seizures are thought to be caused when there is an imbalance of excitatory and inhibitory signals in the brain.

    Dogs, like people, have a normal neurological activity level within the brain that keeps the brain cells from getting too excited, and when too many brain cells are excited at once, a seizure can start up.

    The excitement within the brain cells has absolutely nothing to do with your dog getting excited when you come home from school, or work, when he plays, or during any other activity.

    Depending on your dog's age, the following medical conditions may be the cause of your dog's seizures. (You will find the list in order of more common to more rare conditions.)

    You'd be surprised on how cheap a vet visit can be. Hope that helps    

  3. Has he been to the vet for a diagnosis?  Is he on meds?  If not, that would be your first step
