She gave me some doggie valium for when she does have them. If they do become more often Phenobarb would be our next step.
Here is my thread I had about Zoee. Seizures The part about her seizure starts on post #11. Denyce suggests to try changing food, that worked for her.

Were these three seizures the only ones he has ever had? And what level are they? Can you describe what happens to him?
I'm asking these questions, because I'm thinking if it was the one and only time he may not need to go on the Phenobarb. But that also depends on the severity of the seizures.
They were very severe grand mal seizures. Excessive foaming, loss of bodily functions, followed by a VERY agitated state of aggressive barking and confusion. He simply wasn't himself. All three lasted only 2-3 minutes. We haven't witnessed the last 2; they occurred while being monitored at the vet, but from what they told us, they weren't as bad as the original. He's been "clean" now for over 24 hours. The vet wants to see one more before starting him on Phenobarbitol.

They were the only one's he's ever had in 4 years.
