My Pom is 4 pound male. I think he has Idiopathic epilepsy. We don't know. This was the second episode he has had. My husband saw it for the first time tonight. It scared us both very much. All I could do was cry. I thought he was going to die. It lasted for about 5 mins. I didn't know what was going on. After the episode he was fine. He ran around,jumping and barking as usual. I looked up all the information I could find on seziures and I found your site. I was wondering if you could give me a little information on idiopathic epilepsy. I love my dog so much. He like a child to me and my husban. I just need some friendly advice. Thankyou so much.

i have a best friend, he is a wonderful, loving, 18...yes, 18!! year old pomeranian named popcorn. when he was between the ages of 2-5 he had periodic seizures. they seemed to occur when he got spooked by something (loud sudden noises for ex:). by the time he turned 6, they had stopped and he hasn't had one since. i love my boy and i am grateful he does not suffer with them anymore. i still don't know what caused them, but i am glad they are gone! lisa
