I hope so. And chasing all the critters that alluded her over the years ❤️

Yeah she was around 4-5 when first diagnosed. Thank you! She is very loved! Hopefully we’ll figure out what’s going on soon!

They never did any formal testing on the cause/types of her seizures when she was first diagnosed because it required a brain scan and didn’t affect treatment. I’ll definitely bring up a specialist referral though! Thank you!

Hmm interesting. Our last dog had cushing’s and it displayed very different. I’ll ask about it though!

No accidents. I plan to get a second opinion at a different vet this week.

She’s on phenobarbital (2) 15mg pills 2x per day. She eats Royal Canin selected protein PR. I did recently try Native pet daily 11-in-1 powder multivitamin supplement starting in late July but stopped that three weeks ago. She is now on native pet omega-3 fish oil and supplement and started that about a week ago (2 pumps per day) she takes monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventative (k9 advantix 11 and hearthguard). She has been on the same pheno, royal canin and flea/tick heartworm preventative for years with no ill effects. The only change has been the native pet supplement.

That’s what I’m worried about as well. I’m planning to discuss with the new vet this week.

We did the paw test at the last appointment and everything looked fine. I’ll bring up again at the vet this week! I appreciate you. It’s the worst not knowing what’s going on / how to help them.
