Canine Epilepsy


I received some comments on my last post that some peoples dogs have epilepsy. I thought I would recognize our four  legged buddies.

Apparently canine epilepsy is the most common neurological disorder in dogs. Studies suggest that nearly 4% of dogs have epilepsy in which 14% of purebreds are affected. I’m not sure how accurate this is but I found it on a couple different sites.

I can’t imagine my dogs having to deal with that.  They mean the world to mean and it would crush me each time they had a seizure.  It kind of brings in to perspective how my parents felt every time I had a seizure.  You just never know what will happen.  I guess you just have to hope for the best and that they will come out of it


Email me your purple nails or just thumb so I can post on my blog.  Help support Epilepsy Awareness

  1. Soooo cute!! I love it :D I had a friend in high school that suffered from epilepsy. I only witnessed one episode in the time that I knew him but it left a lasting memory. I'll definitely be doing a purple mani over the weekend! Thank you for sharing :)
