What are the signs of epilepsy in dogs?

Symptoms of epilepsy may appear at any time. Depending on the type of seizure, they may include sudden stiffening of the limbs and collapse, repetitive “paddling” movements, uncontrollable chewing or drooling, shaking, and more. Seizures can last anywhere from a few seconds to a few minutes. The CFA37 gene mutation responsible for this condition can be identified with a DNA test. Schedule a vet visit to get a clear picture. Our vets are also available for a consult if you want guidance before the appointment.
