I have been lookling after a small terrier that was abandoned I think due to his epilepsy. As I already have two dogs I've tried to find a home for him and have now been successful, he will go in about a week. The problem is (Which the new owners are aware of) he is still having fits , about 5 a week, which have not responded to medication. He had a full blood test whcih came back clear. There is one last type of medication the vet could try but it is very expensive. Does anyone have any experience with dogs not responding to fit medication? His fits did get lighter, and shorter and he appears to not lose conciousness now, (which seems nearly worse because now he is awake through them and that can't be very pleasant).
Any ideas?
