There is some validity to not totally panicking over one seizure (some dogs will only have one and then never have a problem again). Obviously in this case those, 4 in just over a week - this pup needs to be seen immediately. Anyway, far as good medicine goes, basic bloodwork is indicated right after the first seizure to look at some values. Toxicity can cause a dog to seize and that is the first rule out. To not at least recommend an ER visit for bloodwork is just crazy. Large animal vets tend to be not so good at small animal medicine.
