We adopted Ginger 2 years ago. We have feed her EUKANUBA YORKIE FOOD as that was what her prior owner feed her. She has been on phenobarbatol and potaassiun Bromide for the last 4 months. During that time she has had 4 sezures.
I then changed her diet to a no grain EVO brand food. I did this 4 weeks ago. She has no had an event since.
TRY CHANGING THERE FOOD BRAND TO A HIGH PROTIEN NO GRAIN DIET. If you do and this works please let me know, it will be very interesting to know. If you look at the post(sticky) about foods you will see that Eukanuba is not rated very high. Please let me know what happens. I hope this helps, if it does it will save you thousands of dollars, I know first hand. |
Did you know that it can take 3-4 months for potassium bromide to reach its full effect? I suspect this is the reason she hasn't had anymore seizures, not the change in diet.
