He hasn't been drinking a lot.
Typically if you grab the skin on the skruff of the neck and pull it back and it snaps back the dog it not dehydrated, I think...

Dehydration certainly isn't going to help...but then the question is why isn't he drinking.

Sorry to hear that about your dog.
Those things are tough to watch but it is tougher on y'all than it is on the dog. It is not all that uncommon but he will be ok.

The family border collie we had would have seizures all the time. She's 14 now and living as any old dog would. Seizures don't necessarily mean the dogs dying. Purebred dogs have some wiring issues sometimes.

just terrible, i use to work with a vet in BR and rag his arse constantly about allowing his techs to use them because they we're just to damn lazy

I don't know. I'm only here from 5pm-5am
I just don't see him drinking a lot.
Any way to get him to dink more short of putting peanut butter in his mouth?

Sounds like you need to pull that digital thermometer out yer butt. Dayum Swahhilli wimmens have already captured you!!

Some folks have had luck putting their dogs on a ketogenic-type program, supplementing with things like coconut oil. Seizures don't always indicate a terminal problem. I'm assuming he wasn't exposed to any stressful conditions today?
Hope the little guy is feeling better. Probably harder on y'all than it was for him.

Some Benadryl might spark his thirst and help him rest.

I thought about this.
I think giving him a pill might stress him out though.
He's sleeping now.
Posted on 10/3/13 at 10:01 pm to AHouseDivided
Yep just rest now and for a few more days after, tell everyone let dude chill tomorrow.

The wife's poodle was having them multiple times a week, the vet recommended feeding him Blue Buffalo brand all natural dog food and a slice of sweet potato every morning. Also absolutely no human food. He now only has them maybe once a month. It def worked for him. Good luck

This might be the problem.
Baby house is almost a year old and "shares" a lot with him.
I left this out earlier.

Human food can give dogs pancreatitis
Posted on 10/3/13 at 10:19 pm to AHouseDivided
Yeah I'm serious about he table food,,if friends are over and they sneak him anything even a bite or two within a day he will have a seizure.

Try removing all. Wheat from his diet. Some dogs are highly allergic to wheat products.This might solve your problem.

Had a Golden years back that had seizures. Vet said he had cancer, and I could spend untold amounts of money to address the cancer or let him live the rest of his life like an old dog. He lived another three years with minimal problems.
He told me to regulate his feedings and give him honey after a seizure (I guess to get his sugar up).
Don't take my word for it on the honey... size difference in a Golden and Beagle might make a difference.
