Vet Visit...

I used to have a dog with epilepsy. He had very few seizures and they did not affect his life in the least way. If Kumar is still happy, healthy in every other way, and has good quality of life left, in my opinion there is NO reason to euthanize him just because he has seizures.

Sending lots of vibes for him!

I know of a gal who had a dog with seizures, she lived for 6 months before they got so severe that she was euthanized. As long as Kumar is doing OK there is not reason to euthanize him, but you have to be aware that you will most likely have to make the call to euthanize him if they become severe enough to warrant it.

Aren't there meds out there to help prevent seizures? Phenobarbital comes to mind.... (I know nothing about seizure disorders in dogs)

Having a dog with grand mal seizures YES meds help... but I also had Kandie who threw one seizure a yr no need for meds there

I know we have a husky at my work who has seizures. He takes a pill 2 times a day exactly 12 hours apart and doesnt have them. But if his pill is even an hour or so late he will. He has had a few when stressed before.
He is an amazingly happy dog! And you could never tell he was sick.

Id get a new vet to, what a heartless thing to say. If he is a happy healthy pup otherwise... why not let him live a good life! People live with seizures and still have good fulfilling lives, why cant a dog?! He is so lucky to have you!!!

I used to have a dog who had seizures as a puppy, but phenobarbitol controlled them well. Certainly if the dog started having frequent seizures that couldn't be controlled by meds, you might have to consider PTS. But I agree that at this point, I'd look for another vet.
