Not quite 2. She's our first poodle, so idk if this is expected of the breed or not.

Epilepsy and seizures are common among Poodles, in fact Standard Poodles are genetically predisposed to epilepsy. If both poodle parents carry the recessive gene, they can pass the condition on to their puppies.

Great breed and seizures aren’t a death sentence. Like I said previously, just comfort her and make sure she has water

Eta: even with meds it still may happen occasionally

I have actually heard this is very common with Poodles. My little dog (Chihuahua) gets them from time to time. It sucks during the event... she is lethargic for a few hours after and then she is back to normal and being a crazy dog

We had a dog (half poodle half maltese) growing up with epilepsy. She lived to be 18 years old and we never gave her any medication that I can recall
