I don't think it is the seizures that are the problem persay. A lot of dogs have them and are fine. There are different types though and I think if the dog were to have more than one in a row, there would be risk. Correct me if I'm wrong someone... If a dog is having symptoms from LS, they are at serious risk. Sadly LS for whatever reason (probably just that the liver can't process toxins) can end a dogs life. Giving the right amount and right type of protein is necessary but if there is an extrahepatic shunt, the best chance the dog has is with surgery.
