What do you do when your husky has a seizure?

Answer 1

My dogs been having really bad seizures lately, and what we did was pet him and told him it was going to be okay, and that mama was here. After he started puking a lot we put him in a luke-warm bath and just started dumping small cups of water on him. We havent gone to the vet yet but we are really soon

Answergently hold the dog, do not try to stop the seizure, this will cause more stress. clear the area, especially around the pets head area. gently pet or rub the animal and softly say caling words such as "it will be okay, shhhhh." dont panic stay calmm! AnswerMy parents had a little dog that had seizures and they took her to the vets. The vets had no idea why this should suddenly happen and she was put on medication (which helped a great deal.) She still had the odd seizure (eyes would glaze over, they would become suddenly rigid and not walk right) and my parents would take turns picking her up and laying on the bed with her and just stroking her until it was over. By laying beside your pet it can calm them down very quickly. If you have to go out be sure you have someone stay in your home and teach them how to deal with this and not leave the dog alone. It's important you get your dog to the vets now!

Good luck

Answer 2

If your dog has cluster seizures, one right after another, it is dangerous. Ask your vet to get a rx like Phenobarbital and/or Potassium Bromide to control. My vet prescribed a rectal Valium for us to take home to help pull him out of his seizures, and that is comforting.

First Stay Calm, try to make sure the dog doesn't run into anything or knock anything over on himself. if he is near anything he may harm himself on, such as water, (pool) or stairs, pull him gently by a rear leg to a safe spot. It is VERY important that you keep your hands away from the dogs mouth.The seizure will cause his jaws to clinch out of his control & you can be badly hurt !!!! The seizure should pass in a few min.s then contact your Vet. ASAP!

Contact your vet immediately! If you have to go to the office, try keeping his head elevated and prevent his tongue from being swallowed. This is why so many dogs die from this. They get choked on there tongue. Ironic, right?

Answer 3

If your dog has a seizure, he should be taken to a veterinarian for examination and treatment. Often seizures can be controlled with medication and the dog can go on to live a relatively normal life.

During a seizure keep away from his mouth. Dogs may snap and bite during a seizure without knowing they are doing it and accidentally injure you.

After a seizure, the dog may be disoriented or even frightened. Be calm and reassuring. Approach with caution. Fearful dogs may bite even someone they know and right after a seizure the dog may not recognize even loved ones. When it is safe to handle the dog, take him immediately to the vet. Seizures may indicate serious illness.

Answer 4

If your husky has a seizure it is best to get him/her to a vet or local animal hospital right away. It is a very scary and dangerous situation and it may cause death if not taken care of properly, But always remember to stay calm and not scare the animal.

Answer 5

Dog seizures can be caused by a number of conditions or illnesses such as liver or kidney failure or brain injury. Therefore, the best thing for you to do when your dog suffers seizures is to check with your veterinarian about your dog's health. They would be able to help you by giving your dog anti-seizure medications and if your dog's seizure is so severe, your vet may offer surgery as an option. Hope this helps.
