I only have experience with a seizing human (my dad has epilepsy) but I would assume much of how a human is cared for when seizing can a apply to a dog. You're not suppose to pick them up, move them, or do anything that might jeopardize anyone, or anything that is having a seizure. If you pick up a seizing dog, it will not bring him/her out of it. You should keep it from hurting itself, but "comforting" them isn't going to change the fact that they're seizing. If anything, you put it in harms way because they have no control of their bodily functions and could very easily fall out of your hands. The best thing to do in these cases is put them in a safe place, time it, and clean them up once they come out of it. If I had a epileptic dog, I would document it also. Not so I could post it on the interwebs, but so I could show my vet and show the breeder.
