Epilepsy is a chronic disorder of the brain and nervous system where abnormal electrical activity causes sudden, temporary disruptions in normal brain function. These disruptions lead to repeated seizures, which are involuntary changes in body movement, sensation, or behavior. Because the underlying cause is often complex, the brain's electrical signaling remains permanently prone to these sudden misfires.
Symptoms typically first appear between 1 and 5 years of age. Owners will notice sudden, involuntary seizures that can involve muscle twitching, heavy drooling, paddling of the legs, and a loss of consciousness, followed by a period of temporary confusion or disorientation.
While epilepsy is not curable, it is manageable with lifelong daily medication and regular veterinary checkups to monitor blood levels. Managing this condition over a dog's lifetime typically costs between €3,000 and €12,000.
