Common with this breed?? We have only 3+ years experience with Chihuahuas.. . We mostly have had large breed dogs, since I train in Obedience Compitition - we fell madly in love with these "little ones" we had to have 5!!! 2 belongs to Emmy my 22 year old who couldn't take them because when Turbo would see any dog or cat on TV he would bark - so she left the radio on for them, but then when he heard a siren he would howl - so management warned her. She is moving out asap to have her babies back - said, "I can't live without them"!! Can anyone give me more info on seizures?? Thanks a bunch!!
