WHAT ARE THE SYMPTOMS OF L-2?
Symptoms can vary from dog to dog but basically there may be seizures of an epileptic style or you may see a change in the way the dog moves. Often after or during exercise (exercise intolerance), or in stressful situations the dogs muscles begin to seize up and you would notice stiffness around the hind legs and an arching of the back, resulting in the dog being unable to walk normally. This can range from slight incapacity to almost total loss of co-ordination and the dog having full-blown seizures. There are other possible symptoms you may notice: an apparent loss of recognition of normal surroundings, staring at walls, appearing to have altered behaviour.
