    Species: Dog
    Condition: Epilepsy
    Organ System: Nervous/sensory

    A disorder in electrical activity of the brain causing seizures. There are various causes of epilepsy. In hereditary type the cause is unknown. It is seen in younger dogs. Seizures usually occur when the dog is resting, lasting 60 to 90 seconds. The dog falls on one side and starts paddling with its legs, chomping its jaw and salivating profusely. There is a chance of involuntary urination or defecation with vocalization. The vet will exclude all other possible causes in order to diagnose the condition and will proscribe a long lasting therapy with anti-convulsive medications in order to prevent further seizures as they damage the brain.
