My older dog Ranger had a short seizure last Wednesday night. He started to recover normally, then made a yelp/cough and fell down. He never moved or made any sound again. At first I thought he was dead. But his eyes told me he was not. He died on Friday morning. I think this was probably a massive stroke. Very sad.

Thanks for sharing this, Cindy. Well prescribed homeopathy can indeed cure epilepsy, but it does take time. And the suppressant drugs obviously are not a cure, so you'll see side effects and slowly deteriorating health the longer they are used.

I'd be most curious if: 1. sometime in Spring of 2017 if both dogs got rabies or a distemper combo wombo vaccine. And/or 2. they got a heartworm "preventative" as summer was beginning and mosquitos started up again. Both of these top the list for causes of seizures. It should be in vet records, if your memory doesn't serve you.
