It's hard to watch your beloved pet suffer something like that. I'll keep my fingers crossed, but please let us know if it happens again. And thanks for sharing your story.Karen Thomason/Gordon Setter Crossinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05227448504530795035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7201631721768549372.post-73173509893390204212010-02-04T21:47:10.770-07:002010-02-04T21:47:10.770-07:00Hi Karen.

She just turned 4 years old. <br /><br />She had her first seizure sometime in late July, it was a hot day and all of sudden on the deck she just went stiff and arched her head up and kind of froze like that, with the help me look in her eyes. Pretty freaky. We thought at first maybe she got too hot.<br /><br />Then maybe 10 days later just sitting on the couch, then less that a week then skip a few and a couple of days in a row. A definite progression.<br /><br />When we decided to switch foods, we went with Science Diet by Hills and she was OK in a couple of days.<br /><br />After one small bag of Science Diet, for some reason my wife bought Iams. 2 days of this and she was back having seizures again ! <br /><br />Back to Science Diet again and so far so good for a few weeks. So more than 1 brand caused her trouble and we don't know what exactly but she's seems as healthy and lively as a puppy now.<br /><br />Go figure. Beneful and Iams have something in them that cause the problem.Al Hayshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07067067829037078610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7201631721768549372.post-80194855465267144662010-02-04T10:07:23.922-07:002010-02-04T10:07:23.922-07:00Say Al, Would you mind telling us what kind of foo...Say Al, Would you mind telling us what kind of food you Pomeranian was eating when she was having seizures? And, what kind is she on now, that she is not having seizures? I suspect you are correct about the chemical build up.Karen Thomason/Gordon Setter Crossinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05227448504530795035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7201631721768549372.post-64030805852492612662010-02-04T09:30:48.284-07:002010-02-04T09:30:48.284-07:00Glad to see your Ginger is doing better.

It is difficult to see our best friends having difficulties. <br /><br />We went through a spell with our Pomeranian where she started having seizures. Vet didn't have a clue. A little research on line and a change of dog food and no more problems. Must be some kind of chemical build up that sets them off. Anyhow, we are sure glad they're gone.<br /><br />Have a great day!Al Hayshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07067067829037078610noreply@blogger.com
