Labradoodle & Goldendoodle Forum
I think, but am unsure, that my 6 year old golden doodle is having seizures. How can I tell??? Each time I take dog to vet they find nothing. But yesterday he had at least 5 episodes. TERRIFYING!!!!!
Current on all shots. Has had these episodes several times within last 3 months.
Help.

There is a seizure group where you may find more information. The best advice I can offer is to try, I know the timing may make things hard, to film any episode so that you can sow it to the vet.
F took the words right out of my mouth. Keep your phone or camera ready and once a seizure starts, film it. Take this along with you to the vet and go from there.
Do the seizures last a long time? What type of seizures are they? I'll third the notion and suggest the seizures group, they will best know how to help you out. Lots of luck and I hope you find out very quickly what it is and how to treat. ♥
I second F's suggestion to join the Seizure Disorder Group: http://www.doodlekisses.com/group/seizures
The members there are experienced and will be happy to help you. Good luck.
while i personally have never dealt with a pet having seizures, i've been diagnosed and been living with epilepsy since i was in the 3rd-4th grade. medical science has come along way since than(for both people and animals) but when i first started having my seizures the doctors couldn't diagnose it either. it wasn't until i was near starting highschool that the doctors finally diagnosed what kind of epilepsy i had and how to treat it. i'm not sure how it is with dogs but i do hope that your vet will be able to diagnose it quite quickly. i don't know if there's a neurological specialists for dogs but if there is i'd suggest going to see them. i'll be praying and hoping for the best.
Good advice Caleb! One of our daughter's stuggles with Epilepsy and it is VERY hard to diagnose and to deal with. So many changes, medications and a lot of emotional stress.
GET YOUR DOG TO THE VET AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!!!!
MULTIPLE SEIZURES SPACED CLOSELY TOGETHER CAN BE LIFE THREATENING!!!
After that join the seizure group. There is a lot of information there - much to much to repeat here.
