So glad to hear that Icee is doing better!! We were thinking about you guys!! I have to agree with Flakes regarding the epilepsy. We had a shepherd/wolfhound cross that started seizuring when she was 8wks old. She would have what they called the "grand mal" seizures where she would shake, then start to contort, then flat out on her side with her legs stiff and shaking. She would drool enough to soak a kitchen towel! Her's lasted about 10 min from start to finish, then she would get up and want to go out, then she would come in for a cookie and go on like nothing was wrong. The first day she started seizing she had about 25 seizures that day. The phenobarb worked right away with no side affects, she was on it for 15 years when she died of cancer. She did have the occassional seizure, about 1 every 4 or 5 months, but we could live with that. Hope the phenobarb is the answer for your Icee!! Good luck!! |
