Hello
Scary time for me and my 3 year old 1.8lb Chihuahua Pablo! Anything you may have to say helps!
To begin with, my dog seized for over 8 hours has been on Pheno for 3 days for treatment of what we believe to be Epilepsy.
He is sleeps 90% of the day. He wakes a few times a day for short periods, he is not lucid, he does not stand, cannot regain all normal function but he is eating and drinking.
We have reduced the Pheno, hoping he returns to normal (or somewhat normal). He seems to be getting better. Sometimes when he's awake his head jerks, usually in one hard motion to the left. Not sure why he continues to do this. He also cries but I think that is to be expected.
Has anyone had a dog seize for such a long period?
Was there any permanent damage?
How long did you treat your dog with Pheno?
Was the dog asleep when on Pheno?
What was your dogs behavior like?
Any tips or advice?
I would like to hear other peoples experiences.
Any additional comments greatly appreciated!
