What triggers seizures in the environment?
Resources: dogs: Dallas (Labrador Retriever); Korie (Schnauzer) people: Dr. Rick Rodenbeck, DVM websites: www.vet.ohio-state.edu/docs/seizure/index.html ; www.labbies.com/epilepsy.htm Clues: Dallas’ seizures have been caused by thunder/lightning storms, excess anxiety due to company, and later, nothing abnormal. It is also known that other things that lower the seizure threshold include vet visits for immunizations, certain immunizations themselves, not enough of certain vitamins, chemical lawn sprays, household cleaners (specifically pine scented), certain flea and tick medications, and certain heartworm prevention. Each dog’s threshold is different and each dog responds differently to various stimuli.
