Kayla,

We've got poodles, prone to seizures. Potassium Bromide with Phenobarbitol work pretty good (talk to your vet of course), but doesn't stop them completely, our youngest (who also came down with Addisons Disease, so now even more meds) still has a seizure about every 6 weeks or so. Our very first poodle was on Dilantin (they don't prescribe that anymore) and lived to be almost 17. It can be done, at least with the small dogs, wish I knew about the larger ones.

Good luck and keep trying.

BTW Sly_RJ, seizures don't mean they are past their prime. We don't "put down" people who have seizures.
