I have taken on a dog which was rescued from Romania. He is about 7/8 years old and has epilepsy. When he arrived in this country in April he was fostered and was fitting most days. Once he started on medication he has not had a fit since. He has not had a fit for 6 weeks.
I currently have him for a week to make up my mind. Obviously everyone has fallen in love with him and my other 2 dogs seem fine with him.
I know the vets fees will be alot and I won't be able to get insurance cos of age and epilepsy. That is part of the reason I took him. I knew there would be fewer people than usual willing to take a dog like this on.
I would just like any others with experience of epileptic dogs to tell me how it is. Because of his background we don't know what caused it.
