Epilepsy in dogs is generally caused by neurological diseases. For example, rabies, brain damage, brain tumors, viral diseases, etc., will cause epilepsy in dogs and cats. Epilepsy occurs in dogs and cats, and the incidence rate of dogs is higher than that of cats.

Secondly, epilepsy is also called epilepsy, which is divided into secondary, primary and metabolic. Generally, primary epilepsy is caused by genetics, and secondary are generally caused by some external stimulation, such as a dog's brain being hit or a tumor growing in the brain, which may also be metabolic. For example, uremia, diabetes, hyperthyroidism or liver problems may cause epilepsy.

In addition, epilepsy may also be caused by poisoning in dogs, such as carbon monoxide poisoning, or eating chocolate, resulting in insufficient oxygen supply. Then, when the dog is highly excited, afraid and strongly stimulated, it can cause epilepsy seizures.

When the dog is in an epileptic attack, do not forcefully hold the dog down. The shoveler needs to protect his beloved dog and remove the surrounding dangerous objects. And be sure not to touch it to avoid injury. You can comfort the dog until the attack is relieved.

Warm reminding dogs to have epilepsy usually take about five minutes. After the attack, feed it some water. Pay attention to providing the dog with a quiet living environment, clean it frequently, and do not irritate the dog. This is how many times the disease occurs.
