He only seem to have the head tilt and seizures based on what his owner said. Other than the head tilt I haven't seen any other symptoms. No head pressing, wobbly walking, or fly catching that I've noticed. He actually can hold his head straight at times but it normally is tilted. I really want to have a vet check it out. I just can't make that discission since he is still her dog. She said he was fine until he turned 5 yrs old.

It is also stated in a few things I read that bad nutrition can cause this and she had him on Purina Kibbles. I think that is about the worse food you can buy. He loves our Chicken soup for the Dog Lovers Soul and Instinct dog food. He has gained 4 OZ since Sunday.
He is getting quite attached and follows me around like a puppy!
