Thank-you for giving me something positive. I just had to put my 7 yr. old poodle down in June of this year. I could not deal with another loss. My sister just really scared me. The vet said that as long as they can stop the seizure, and the wrong brain cell does not get damaged she will be alright. Mysister is a nurse and she told me that sometimes they push so much meds. to stop the seizures it can be fatal.
