"Hello, my name is Dr. James Dee. I'm with Hollywood Animal Hospital in Hollywood, Florida. A seizure in a dog can be devastating if it's your pet. Now seizure can be set on by a number of things. It could be idiopathic epilepsy. It could be related to a showering of blood clots, which is in a stroke. It could be related to toxins. It could be related to other infectious disease.
