If your favorite “hound” has to deal with seizures like our Penny, here is some great information to keep in mind. Thanks MVMC

My pet is having a seizure... What do I do?
We've put together some helpful tips from our Neurology team to help aid your pet while a seizure occurs! (Also note how cute Jaxson is in the photo below 😊)
1️⃣ Keep your pet in a safe area away from furniture, stairs, and walls/windows.
2️⃣ Keep away from their face, and make sure their airway is clear (ie. no blankets/pillows blocking their mouth/nose). Also stay away from their face for your own safety, as pets in an active seizure can sometimes bite without knowing.
3️⃣ If your pet shows signs of aggression while coming out of the seizure/after the seizure has finished, safely move them to a kennel or separate room until they are back to normal.
4️⃣ Time the seizure and watch the symptoms! Note when your pet starts their seizure and when it ends while also making note of what you are seeing while the seizure happens. This may not be a simple answer as all seizures are different, but any details you can provide to your pet's veterinarian are helpful.
5️⃣ Call your primary veterinarian/local emergency veterinarian (if after hours) if the following occur: the seizure lasts more than five minutes, your pet is going in and out of seizures without fully regaining consciousness between, your pet has more than one seizure per hour for three consecutive hours or more, or your pet is having three or more seizures per day.

We hope these tips are helpful and that you and your pets stay safe ❤️

Rusty had a wonderful time looking after Winnie. She is quite the extrovert and loves meeting folks as we walking in the park.
