For over a week, finally got some pix this arvo.
Bit traumatic here at the moment, Rosie (16 yo dog) has just had a seizure. Seems to be coming out of it ok....
And I have adopted two dogs who turned out to have seizures, I know it's a very scary thing. I finally had to try medication with the first little one, acupuncture and a special diet with the other one, both cocker spaniels. I have adopted senior dogs. Wishing Rosie feels better soon - and you, too! 
She's had a few - none for about 3 months. I know she won't be around forever but she's thin and fit with no obvious ailments. Here's hoping..and thanks. 
That's why I finally agreed to medication for Samantha who I adopted at age 8. Turns out that's why she was given up, it you can believe that. Sheena was just about the same age when I adopted her, her owner had died, and found out later from her vet that she'd been brought in before for "suspected seizures." When they got worse she was diagnosed with Cushing's Syndrome - and I tried the more natural approach, acupuncture and a prescription diet. It's never easy, but I was told early on by the vet that it's scarier for me than for the dog. 
And the vet has also told me, is that they are not aware of what's happening.
Three months ago she had four seizures in a week and I thought that was the end, but she suddenly snapped back into reality and has been good since then.
Funnily enough, I had a friend years ago with Cushing's Syndrome. Not a good condition to have.
And when my little Samantha had several major seizures in one day, that's when I agreed to the medication. Turns out that the meds also did damage - so that's why I went with alternative medicine for Sheena. Her initial seizures were the same kind as a girl had who I went to camp with - she'd just seem to space out and sometimes urinated. It's when they became worse that I tried the alternative medicine. And when she was diagnosed with Cushing's, I read everything I could find and when the vet prescribed Lysodren I refused to go along, I had read that Anipryl works more slowly, but doesn't have the bad side effects. Quality of life is important as well and I didn't want to put her through anything. Hoping that Rosie continues to do better...
