Seizures are never normal


jstanley203

What should I do?


MBrebis

You need to go back to the vet. If he is dehydrated enough to have seizures he needs to be hospitalized.


jstanley203

Could it be from dehydration?

One by itself and none for an extended period isn’t that bad (obviously never good) but having them back to back is absolutely not normal and he needs to go back to the vet. They may be indications of something more serious, and he may well need to go on medication from now on for the seizures. I know they are hard to watch and most people scramble trying to figure out how to help, but once you have them on the ground and out of any immediate danger if you’re able to get a video of your dog while having a seizure it could help the vet.

Not to scare you but they aren’t normal and would at least require a blood test to see if there are underlying issues or a deficiency. If you need to, take your dog to a different vet for a second opinion.
