No dog owner wants to see their beloved fur friend experiencing a seizure. Knowing more about their cause can help ease <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ovrs.com\/blog\/fear-free-veterinary-visits\/\">fears we face<\/a> as pet owners. Seizures in dogs are a type of brain disorder, and there are multiple reasons why a pet may be having them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ovrs.com\/\">The team at Oakland Veterinary Referral Services<\/a> is here to clarify this condition and provide insight into the causes of and treatments for seizure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Is a Seizure?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A seizure is abnormal brain activity, a rapid occurrence of electrical impulses of the brain and uncontrolled muscle spasms. We don\u2019t completely understand the exact mechanisms of this condition, but there are a number of factors linked to seizures. A seizure can either be a grand mal seizure, affecting all four limbs, or a focal seizure that impacts one side of the body.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Common conditions that create a seizure episode:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Brain tumor<\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ovrs.com\/blog\/lily-toxicity\/\">Toxicity\/poisoning<\/a><\/li><li>Low blood sugar<\/li><li>Trauma<\/li><li>Epilepsy<\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ovrs.com\/blog\/kidney-disease-in-cats\/\">Kidney disease<\/a><\/li><li>Liver failure<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Idiopathic epilepsy is an inherited disorder that starts to display symptoms between the ages of 6 months to 6 years. This form of epilepsy is diagnosed in certain breeds more often, such as Labrador Retrievers, Poodles, Golden Retrievers, Dachshunds, and Beagles, among others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Happens During a Seizure<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If your dog has a prolonged seizure, these occur for more than 5 minutes. Cluster seizures are when two or more seizures occur within a 24-hour time span.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A seizure has specific phases associated with their symptoms and duration. The first stage accompanies behavior changes that produce restlessness and anxiety.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From there, stage two is when the seizure is happening. Seizures can last between a few seconds to several minutes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stage 3 concludes the seizure. During this recovery time, your dog may be disoriented, uncoordinated, anxious, and salivate more. Some pets experience <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ovrs.com\/blog\/caring-for-a-blind-dog\/\">temporary blindness<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Diagnosing and Treating Seizures in Dogs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To diagnose your canine, your veterinarian performs a thorough examination, as well as ordering lab testing. Treatment includes medication combined with supportive care and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ovrs.com\/specialty-services\/alternative-medicine.html\">complementary therapies like acupuncture<\/a>. There are a few medications on the market that effectively treat seizures. These include Phenobarbital and Zonisamide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another type of treatment relies on what your dog eats. A diet that includes medium-chain fatty acids as a fat source may be able to decrease seizures in some dogs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When Your Dog Has a Seizure<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>During the seizure, you can help keep your dog safe and calm by following these instructions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Remain calm and keep your dog as calm as possible by using a reassuring voice and touch.<\/li><li>Keep track of the time it begins and finishes, so that you can pass the information on to your veterinarian.<\/li><li>Do not attempt to hold down your dog or grab their tongue (despite the popular myth, they do not swallow it).<\/li><li>Cushion your pet\u2019s head and remove any obstacles around them, while stroking their fur.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Your dog may sound like they are in pain or defecate or urinate, but they aren\u2019t in pain and elimination is a result of the muscle spasms. Call your veterinarian after the seizure to discuss the episode for their medical records.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you would like more information about seizures in dogs, or would like to schedule an appointment, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ovrs.com\/contact-us\/\">please phone us<\/a>. A seizure can look frightening to a pet owner who loves their canine companion. But there are many ways we can treat them to give your furry friend the best possible life.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Witnessing a seizure in your dog can be a scary event.
