Need good thoughts...

[BriarRosie]

Pets are family, too.



Hope the poor li'l pup does ok with meds, if needed.

Literally five minutes ago, I got off the phone with my wife who informed me that one of our cats got hit by a car...

she's devastated, and the kids don't yet know...

Hoping all is well. Our furry children are so special.

Pete, you and Max are in my thoughts. I hope everything turns out okay.

Best of luck with the pooch. Even if it is a seizure disorder there is still a good chance he can live a long happy life... keeping my fingers crossed

 

[Dodie]

I certainly understand, Pete, as we have furry kids too. Animal medicine is very advanced these days. I hope everything turns out okay.

Thinking good thought and sending positive energy to you both!!

Holding good thoughts for Max (and you and Walter too!). Our first 'baby' was our now 15 year old Beagle, Megan - of course they are part of the family!

As many others have said, I know several dogs with seizure disorders who have done very well with medication.

Sending good thoughts your way and hoping for the best for your baby. We have real babies now but I still couldn't imagine anything happening to our cats-formerly-known-as-our-babies.

You and Max are in my thoughts and prayers.

My pug dogs, Max and Lucy, have the following message for Max:

"Woof, woof, woof...arf, arf, woof, woof, arf, arf...woof, arf, woof, arf, woof, woof!"

Translation: "Get well soon...milk the attention for more treats...you are in our doggie prayers!"

Sending healing vibes to Max and peaceful vibes to you, Pete!

Sending you good wishes. It sounds like there are some treatments out there that might work for your baby. My son has epilepsy & his seizures are currently totally under control from the meds he taking. Now he is on 3 meds & it is like a cocktail that has to be changed & refined from time to time. In then beginning you may have to tell the vet how things are going.
I do know how you feel about your animals. When my cat died last year I cried so hard for many, many days. still miss her too.
Take care

Went to the vet yesterday with Max for his regular check up- and it turns out my baby might have a seizure disorder. He's been 'biting at the air' lately when nothing is there. At first, I thought it was just an oddity of behavior. The doctor disagrees and thinks that there might be something else wrong. I know it may sound crazy to some - but Max is like my child. The thought of something like this happening to him is killing me. They ran a series of tests yesterday that I should get back today. If those are inconclusive, we'll have to do some other testing.

So, please think good thoughts for Max.

Thanks,
Pete

my little guy had a seizure 4 months ago......and then nothing, whew. but then sunday nite at 3am had another and at 2 pm monday had another. it broke my heart to hold him till he came out of it. we called the vet and they put him on phenobarbitol. he had a small seizure that evening and since he will shake his head and as you say, make odd motions with his mouth. the drug, which is a sedative, raises the seizure threshold but takes a week or so to become 100% affective and has side affects of its own. i will let you know if he returns to normal once his metabolism adjusts to the meds. good luck to both of us and max and jasper.

I know it may sound crazy to some - but Max is like my child.
