thanks much appreciated

Hello Colin we have had a number of members over the years who have had dogs with Epilepsy.

Firstly I would recommend you start a diary noting time/length of episodes. Also what happened prior to them so you may be able to find a trigger (though for many there will not be one).
This will help your vet.

It is really a matter of finding a medication that suits your dog (there are a couple available) then adjusting the dose to get it just right.

Hello. What breed of dog is it? Some breeds are more prone to epilepsy than others. I cannot offer you advice on it but you may want to have the veterinarian evaluate your dog and offer advice. Good luck and take care.

Hello Mrs M I hate to disagree with anyone and hope you will not be offended if I do so on this occasion in the interests of Colin's dog . There is no scientific evidence for homeopathic remedies being effective beyond a placebo effect https://www.sciencebasedmedicine.org...ce/homeopathy/
..and while they may do no harm, with a serious condition like epilepsy it is essential to consult a vet about getting the appropriate medication without delay.

Hello Jessica that is so.
I noted Colin has Border Collies and they are a breed which is suitable to Epilepsy.

Colin don't be too downhearted , once stabilised your girl may be ok for most of the time. My friend had an epileptic BC and she lived an almost normal life for many years after developing the condition.

Please read the link I posted above with other Members experiences of owning an epileptic dog, it may help you...
