My sister's dog a lovely cairn terrier has been having fits for a few weeks now,the fits are very distressing for  beany so a desicion will have to be made very soon to have her pts,she is 12 but it is never easy is it,my sister is devastated,it will be a very sad chrismas.

That is very sad , the right decision but heartbreaking :-(

How sad for them, never an easy decision. I am sure they will know what is right for their dog.
Thinking of everyone who has poorly dogs or who has lost a beloved friend recently.

How very sad - but the poor dog has to be put first.  Why does everything bad happen at Christmastime? 

Thinking of your sister....

Is there some reason why medication cannot be prescribed?

I have a bitch that had seizures, and it is under control with phenobarb.  I regularly have her blood tested to ensure the dose is correct, and she is doing well.

She is on medication,my sister spoke to the vet yesterday,he wants to see Beanie on tuesday,fits are lasting 20 minutes and she is distressed for up to 4 hours afterwards poor girl,she had 2 last weekend,she has other health problems and on prednisolone ,in the lap of the gods I suspect,will tell my sister about the phenobarb,thanks for your help.

Sheila

Sorry to here about your sisters dog.  Could you ask about a change in medication to try and some sort of relaxant to help with the distress.  I think I hold off until after christmas if all can cope. 

Beany was pts this morning ,we are all so sad,I am in tears hearbroken for my sister.

Sheila
