If you see your Akita having periodic convulsions or fits then he could be having a seizure. Call your vet right away and take your dog in for an exam. Seizures can be a common occurrence for many dogs. Seizures often occur as a result of misfiring of communications or neurons in the brain. If this is the case for your pup, then your vet will need to run tests to determine why the seizure occurred. Once a cause is found then the cause can be treated and hopefully the seizures will be treated as well. Treatment for seizures may involve medications to either treat the cause or treat the severity and frequency of seizure activity. It may take time to find the right dosage or combination of medications for your dog. Try to be patient in the process. Talk with your veterinarian Greenwood, IN to learn more. Or click this homepage.
