Seizures in dogs (update on Bud) last page
Wednesday morning at 3am and again at 7:20 Bud had a seizure. This is the first that I'm aware of. I took Bud to the vet who gave him a shot of Valium. He has not had a problem since. The vet said it...

Did the seizures happen to start after application of monthly flea/ticks meds? I've noticed that several of them have warnings on them concerning seizure prone dogs.
I second spacing out vaccines and having them administered as little as legally allowed. Many dogs have adverse reactions to them, especially if all given at once.
There have been many anecdotal reports of rosemary triggering seizures in seizure prone dogs. It's a common ingredient in many kibbles.
If you're feeding a kibble with colored pieces, I'd change to a kibble without them. Many of the grocery store brands contain them, as do the least expensive foods on the last aisle of the big box pet stores.
My boxer, Jackson, started vomiting at night after being fed Purina Pro Plan Sensitive Stomach and Skin for a few weeks (against my better judgement, I might add :o). I changed him to Fromm Gold Adult, and it literally stopped overnight. A good quality Kibble can make a difference in your dog's health!
