    I had a dog who had seizures for years. I know how frightening they are. Dilly didn't start having them until she was poisoned. Some jerk was poisoning dogs in town with rat poison. She was outside in her pen, not bothering any one while I was at work. The vet saved her but she had the seizures off and on until she passed. She was on med that couldn't control the seizures but did damage her liver.

    I got so I could tell when one was coming. She would start looking around like she was seeing things that weren't there and creeping around looking in corners. Her eyes didn't focus when she looked at me. Like she didn't even see me. Sometimes I could head a seizure off by giving her her med when I noticed her doing that. The days she didn't have seizures though, were great for us both.

    Prayers are with you and Jackie.
    No matter what anyone does, someone some where will be offended some how!!!!

    The pacing and whining were more due to the valium than the seizure for Snoopy. The standing in corners was still a side effect of the seizure- he would also run into walls - so sad to experience all that. During the last couple of weeks of his life when he started to have more frequent seizures he would cry too.
