Rough night. Was pretty sure my boy dog had a seizure so we brought him in. Vet didn't think so. Tests came back ok. Something scary neurological happened.

*he got good care. We are lucky to live close to the hospital
My Germain Shorthair Pointer started having seizures at about 4 years old. One maybe every 3 to 4 months. Usually at about 4 or 5 in the morning. They would last 2 to 3 minutes followed by confusion on her part and not able to get up and walk around. She would collapse and starred wildly around, very confused. My vet said that since they were infrequent it was something we would have to live with. Tests weren't gonna tell much with them being infrequent. On a routine visit a vet who my vet added to her staff that recently graduated vet school saw us. We discussed the seizures and she recommended changing the dog food over to Purina Pro Plan and put her on a prescription one a day pill KBroVet - CA1. That was over 2 years ago and she hasn't had a seizure since.

My best wishes and hopefully this will be just a one time occurrence.

Running through the little batch I mixed up, shooting for the flavor profile and strength of Irish Flake.
I’m liking this one a lot, and I shall call it “Pikey Caravan”. Later this week a 6oz batch shall be sous-vise’d and pressed.
