My dog has seizures about once every three weeks. He's white and white dogs can carry a gene for seizures. He got the gene. The seizures are mild, but too frequent. The goal is once every six weeks. He is on phenobarbital and Keppra. When he has a seizure, I just pet him and talk calmly to him. Don't know what gets through to him, but it's the best I can think of. Otherwise he's a very happy active eight-year-old poodle mix.
