    I''ve had two dogs that suffered from seizures. My big Lab had them since he was two years old. The older he got the less he had them. First time i saw it happened freaked me out cause he was in his chair and all of a sudden fell to the floor cause he was trying to get up. My little dachshund also has them, he will all of a sudden start wandering around looking for me until he cant move anymore. Longest ones for either lasted up to 10 minutes, shortest ones still lasted up to 3 to 5 minutes. It's rough watching them go through it but im glad i was usually around when they happened.

      theASHnetwork1 Christ th at is awful . My cat had one last night , first one ever . Was massive . She is six . I hope it’s true they feel no pain in them . It’s devastating to watch isn’t it . I was scared . She isn’t quite right done but I did take her to the vet . Waiting for a swab result . It’s good yours got less as your dog got older . I hope all is well

      There is no pain involved in Grand Mal seizures. I had one on September 27th of 2017 and another, while in the hospital, on September 29th 2017. I don’t think I’ll ever forget those dates. On the 27th I woke up like any normal day and went to a meeting. My brother and I owned a company together at the time. I drove to the meeting and we started talking with a guy for a short time. We were repainting the outside of one of our buildings and wanted to see, in person, what the colors would look like. It was either going to be red or orange and he had examples of each that we could look at look. I picked up the orange example and looked at it for a second or two and the next thing I knew, I was looking up at an EMT. He asked me if I knew what happened. I must have gurgled something because he said “you had a seizure and we’re taking you to the hospital.” I have a distinct memory of being loaded onto the stretcher, being led out of the office and outside and into the ambulance. That’s when I heard my brother tell me “I’ll call Mom and Dad and tell them what happened.” I also believe he told me he’d take care of my car. And then I don’t remember a thing. I either just passed out or they gave me drugs or what. I’m not sure. I could write a book about this whole thing at this point but really the next 3 months were a blur and I barely remember any of it and what I do remember was a complete nightmare. I contracted encephalitis most likely from a mosquito bite and seizures are a side effect of that disease. I spent most of my time at Mayo in Rochester MN and even they couldn’t really say what was wrong with me. I’m epileptic now and it’s well controlled with medication, although I still do get minor seizures from to time, but they don’t affect my day to day life. Overall, since my initial incident, I’ve probably had thousands of seizures with some really bad ones right after I was released. But, after saying all that, when it comes to pain...no I didn’t feel a thing. Like I said, I was just doing one thing and then woke up on the ground looking at an EMT the first time. The second time was in the hospital and I wasn’t aware that even happened. I was told that any seizure lasting over 5 minutes long can be fatal. Apparently my first one was 8 minutes long and my second one was 10 minutes long. They had to call a Code Blue on me for the second one so I guess my heart stopped and they had to resuscitate me. I haven’t really been the same since. Both of my shoulders were fractured. I don’t know if that was from the first one or the second one. I didn’t need surgery...I was able to regain the vast majority of my motion just by stretching, working out with weights and rubber bands but they’re still not the same. I don’t have free range of motion like I used to. Both the left side of my back and lower back remains stiff and starts to hurt quickly too. And then there’s the weight gain. I’m on 3 epilepsy drugs at the moment and all 3 say that weight gain is a side effect. I put on 35 pounds really quickly.

      @@cm6995 Yeah, like I said above, I’m very lucky to be alive. Even 8 minutes is massive, but 10 minutes is even worse and again, my heart did stop while in the hospital, so I did need to be resuscitated. It’s crazy that all this happened to me because of one stupid mosquito bite. Prior to that, I was a relatively healthy 37 year old guy. Probably 15 lbs overweight and that’s about it.

    To everyone thinking this is proper this isn’t….
    Never EVER put your face or hands near the mouth. They aren’t going to swallow their tongue. She’s incredibly lucky to have her hand. I know you love your dog and you’re caring for them the best way but let that seizure ride out. Talk to them in calm voice “it’s okay, that’s a good boy/girl, come on (name of dog)” they’ll bounce out and it’s then yoh can navigate and make sure they don’t hurt themselves. It walking off the steps etc.
    Never go near the face and mouth

      You're 100% right, my dog just had his first last week. I stayed away because it looked terrifying, but when it was over I went to the sliding glass door that he was up against, and spoke to him telling him I was going to open the door for some fresh air, and he jumped up and attacked my arm. I've got several puncture wounds and scratches now. I'm lucky I was able to get away from him because he looked like he was ready to kill me because he was so scared. I'd never dealt with seizures before and didn't think about him biting me, otherwise I'd have steered clear for a very long time after.

    NEVER RESTRAIN A SEIZING DOG!! This can result in severe injury to both you and the dog. My mom was holding my epileptic dachshund when she went into a seizure that caused her to bite my mom by accident, which landed her in the ER.
    The BEST thing to do for a seizing dog is put a towel or jacket under the head, give the dog space to have the seizure, and administer rescue medications as directed by your veterinarian. When the convulsions stop (post-ictal phase), watch the dog recover from a short distance away. It's not uncommon for dogs to exhibit excitement, aggression, and confusion in the post-ictal phase. Some dogs will even have a second seizure during this phase.

    • @CriticalTechReviews
      @CriticalTechReviews 4 ปีที่แล้ว +12

      As I explained to another one of you people above, she wasn't fucking restraining the dog, she was stroking his chest to calm him down/try and ease him back to reality, and slipped her hand under his head to keep him from bashing his face into the concrete.
      Also I don't care what any of you idiots want to say, I have a rottie with epilepsy, and you have to be pretty fucking stupid to get bitten during one of these. You slide your hand below the neck line and hold their head up from there, so you hand isn't in reach of the mouth, so they're not bashing their face and especially teeth into the ground. That can be a big deal if it's concrete and they impact with their teeth. Once that phase passes and they start to calm, you can thread a towel beneath the head so the foaming spittle doesn't sink into the fur as badly.

      I am sorry that your mom got hurt, but I don't agree. If you know how to react and are careful, you can hold the dog's head and keep your hand away from its mouth. Otherwise, the dog can shake its head violently to the point where it can bang it on the hard floor or pavement causing severe head trauma. My dog suffered from seizures, sometime three in one day and i never had a problem. Just cradle the head and stay away from the mouth.

    Please, DON'T EVER grab them like that while having a seizure..
    There are many reasons why you shouldn't but the most important one is they can and will bite your face.
    They are not conscious when seizing and when they start coming out of it, they don't know whats happening or who you are. You are very lucky nothing happened.
    Finally, holding them does not help... best thing to do is make sure they're not banging their heads against something hard.

      A seizure results in involuntary contraction and relaxing of muscles due to excitation in the brain and the sufferer often loses consciousness. You can only relax an animal or person during a seizure by sedation or anaesthesia. And that's not necessary for most seizures because they pass by themselves.

      @@audiobyasma9745 After I was released from the hospital I went to live with my parents. I was single and definitely was in no condition to take care of myself. It was nice that we both lived in the same town so there wasn’t much of an inconvenience there. Anyway, after I was released I continued to have many seizures...sometimes multiple ones in the same day. I could always feel them coming on. It’s called an “aura”...weird smells, seeing strange lights, a sense of deja vu, just a sense of strangeness or “doom”, and other things. Actually my auras were always sound related. I would start to hear a ringing and vibration in my left ear and then I knew a seizure was about to happen. So when I heard that ringing, I would tell my parents about it and I would go lie down and ride it out. And then there was the recovery period afterwards, which was very frustrating at times because you’re not yourself and it takes awhile to get back to normal. One time I remember waking up and I couldn’t talk. I tried and tried and no words came out and I just became more and more frustrated. As time went on I just kept on stuttering and couldn’t get past my first word, then slowly the second word came out. This lasted for like 45 minutes before I could finally speak normally again.

    In an outdoor situation such as this, it is best to be near the dog but not in close proximity to it, certainly not holding it or holding it down. During the seizure, the dog has lost consciouness and will not respond until the seizure has come to an end. It may take the dog a little while to 'come to'. Just be there, so when he 'returns' he will have the benefit of your love.

      I don't know if you're still looking for the answer to this question, but in my dog's case; she moves around in kind of a pattern (kitchen => living room => bathroom => bedroom, and repeat), doesn't quite seem to acknowledge me anymore. At that point I know I have to start moving furniture out of the way or she'll hurt herself, because after a while, she'll start running like crazy, not bothering with avoiding things. And also barks like crazy, and then the hell starts because it really hurts to see the rest. She'll get so scared that her bark is mixed with a scared yelping and her eyes look so terrified, she also shrinks away almost or when there's a wall behind her really backs away into the wall. Then she goes stiff and falls and starts seizing just like you saw in the video. We're not supposed to touch a dog that's having an attack, but I can never just let her lay on the floor, so I quickly pick her up and lay her on a soft surface near by. In reality the seizing only takes like a minute or so, but it feels like eternity. Last time, which was actually in the night from last week thursday to friday, she'd even peed herself. Then she stills and comes back to herself slowly. It takes a while. She's so disoriented. When her limbs aren't so stiff anymore, I pick her up and put her on my lap. When she starts licking my hand, I know she'll be okay. But it's intense to go through. I thought I was mentally prepared for it after I knew that it was epilepsy and had read all kinds of information about it. But I really wasn't. I was still extremely scared to lose her. She takes medication daily, but that doesn't stop the attacks, only lessens them.
      My worst fear is, what if she gets an attack like that when I'm not at home : (

      A seizure is an abnormal electrical activity in the brain and the "episodes" usually last some seconds or few minutes (normally not more than 4- 5 minutes. If they last more than 4- 5 minutes, something could be very wrong). Seizures can be caused by a lot of things: epilepsy, high fever, a head injury, dehydration, extreme stress, poisoning, food allergies, a brain tumor, brain cancer, dangerously low or high blood sugar levels, etc.

    If your dog has seizures you need to look at what you are feeding your animal. Especially if you have had two dogs and they both have seizures. Some foods can cause a chemical build up toxic foods you all should know, chocolate, onions, grapes, ect. But if your dog still has them look around for mould, mouldy bread, slugs in the garden - they don't need to eat them just step on the tracks. Another massive cause is tinned and dry foods not having enough protein - try feeding your dog a raw egg once a week and then introduce them to a gradual raw diet.

    Just place something soft under or around the head so the dog does not hit its head. Lots of people have suffered traumatic brain injuries as a result of seizures when helpers did not know how to prevent this. It can also happen when the fit first starts and the sufferer falls down. In this case the dog fell on grass, but imagine him falling 2m further over, on the left hand side, where his head could have hit the concrete path. Am glad he is OK, but did you have to get him checked over by a vet? In humans such seizures result on horrendous fatigue, and they may be bedbound or need care from others. I would not have let the dog run around....

      @@CriticalTechReviews Indeed I did, and no he didn't. His head was the last thing to go down. He started the fit in a sort of upright sit, with his body curving, and gradually dropping/slidiing down as the fit took over, so his head was actually the last thing to meet the ground, which will have ensured the impact was notso bad as to cause brain damage. In that they said he was fine now, this indicates he did not sustain injuries to his head. EIther way, even if your head does hit the ground, it is best for owners to cushion it, to avoid worsening any further impacts from the shaking. I know from one woman, who used to get these fits after fainting in public and she always briefed us all to cushion her head. Most adults will have several seizures during their lifetime, but they mostly happen during sleep so we are not aware of them and it does not lead to our being considered epileptic. It's possibly the same for dogs. Not sure, but will ask the next time I see a vet.

So it will just go all over the place and probably bumb into you. It does hurt them more to have them restrained. Because, they cant move around.

    • @CriticalTechReviews
      @CriticalTechReviews 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      ​@@arrialdavenport6959 I'm sorry but you need to protect their head. That's THE most important thing during these, and if it happens on a hard floor, it is imperative to their brain health. Fuck your paper skin and "bruises" from being "bumb"ed into (whatever that means), you need to react quickly in the moment, and unless you have pillows everywhere in arm's reach, that means you're going to need to manually hold their head up. The best way to do that is to put your hand/arm (depending on size and weight) under their neck and lift. This keeps your hands well away from their spazzing mouth (how are people stupid enough that they're getting bitten; don't fucking put your hands in their mouth), and allows them free movement everywhere else. You do this ideally from behind, giving them total range with their paws.
      I don't care what you fucking read in a book, I deal with this 12-20 times a month. I keep towels where I can so I can grab some when I run to him. They go against his dick to catch the piss before he kicks it literally everywhere, and under his face, so the foaming drool doesn't mat into his facial fur as badly. The towel also gives him something softer to lie on as he comes out of it. I withdraw my hands and leave him completely be as soon as he comes back into himself. This also helps with not getting bitten, since they can be quite scared when coming to.
      You idiots act like making sure they don't bash their skull or teeth against the floor is akin to fucking tackling them. It's not. Also, I have found that gentle presence during post ictal is better than none. You don't want to crowd them, but you don't want to just completely fuck off somewhere else either. You are familiar. Familiar things seem to shorten the post ictal phase in my experience.
