Our vet has no idea what may be causing this and we are desperate for an answer. If the condition continues a short anti-inflammatory steroid trial might be worth considering. Ask your vet about this. Only then can a definitive treatment plan be formulated. Thank you for your time and answers.
Epilepsy is an electrical disturbance of the brain characterized by seizures.
The legs then stiffen and shake, often violently. Once the seizure has started there is nothing an owner can do to stop it. Do not tie up or hold the animal. Dogs in major seizures can have tremendous strength. Improper restraint at this time could cause muscular and possible bone damage.
