Oz was having mild seizures, as compared to what it sounds like Snoopy's are. He gets this sort of spaced out look, shakes a lil' and loses control of his legs. They've all been less then a minute in duration, but were happening daily. So I took him into the vet and he recommended not putting Oz on medicine as long as they were mild. According to him with the level Oz was having, there would be no worry of brain damage and once you put'em on the medicine, they're on it for life.

Anyway there doesn't seem to be an exact science to determining what causes the seizures. They more or less rule out things that could be causing the issue. So when we left the vets, after they ran some tests, I still didn't know for sure what was causing them.

I tried to think of what was different though that all of a sudden, he started having these seizures. The only thing I could come up with, was I was doing an exorbitant amount of cleaning to the floor, because Gull was going through a diarrhea issue at the same time (Gull's issue turned out to a bacterial infection). It's the only thing I could think of that was different, so I decided to go over all the floors with just a vinegar and water solution, getting all the cleaning chemicals up off the floor. His seizures immediately went down in frequency, level and duration.

Then he went for quite awhile with no seizures, until just recently. He had a very very mild one not too long ago. I've been racking my brain trying to remember if I was cleaning anything that he could have come into contact with, but don't recall having done so. He had vaccinations recently so maybe now he's more susceptible to the seizures and that caused it. I just don't know. I just hope they continue to stay mild and don't elevate or better yet cease occuring again.

Poor guy, he knows when he's gonna have one and comes to me to hold him up. That seemed to be the worst part for him, losing control of his legs and not being able to stand. During one of the more severe ones, I found him laying on the floor drooling, unable to get up and he seemed so upset about not being able to stand. He was trying to stand, but his legs were like rubber. I had to really work to keep it together and not get all hysterical on him. I figured out if I stay calm, talk to him softly and sit under him so I can prop him up in a standing position, it's not so scary for him. I think that's why he seeks me out before they happen, because once they start, he can't move to get to me and he knows he'll end up on the floor. So at least we got a system now that makes it less scary for both of us.
