Absolutely! There will be challenges....but having spent 5 years with a seizure dog. (Rascal, the obnoxious Lab we had at most GSD shows)...I can't imagine just putting him down. He gave us so much....

Does anyone have any experience/advice I can give her? I just want to know if puppies having seizures since 6 months of age and having one maybe every couple months would do well on phenobarbital or would be an inevitable euth do to organ problems later.
