We had 2 Akitas (1 worse than the other_ that had seizures due to the flea/tick stuff we used but the seizures went away when we changed brands.



Holy shite bump:

I just looked back at the dates of my dogs seizures in relation to his flea and tick medication. 3 weeks after giving him a dose of flea and tick meds, he had his first seizure. His 2nd and 3rd seizure came 3 days after taking the flea and tick meds the next time. What the frick?

Our dachshund was on phenobarbital for several years. We eventually figured out that the seizures were caused by pesticides (when exterminator sprayed the apartment/house yard, and when we used flea shampoo). Slowly got him off the meds and didn't let pesticides near him. No problems after that and he lived to the age of 17.
