My daughter has a 9 year old smooth dachshund who is a sweet, loving old girl.  
She began screaming in pain last week just randomly.  The vet said she was 
having disc pain so he gave her a shot and prescribed some pills for the 
inflammation and pain.  This was Saturday.  Well, at 6:00 p.m. today, Princess 
started to have a seizure that lasted about 4 minutes.  She was asleep and woke 
up seizing.  My daughter called me all freaked out.  I talked her down and told 
her to keep Princess from hurting herself and talk quietly and calmly to her 
until it was all over.  When the seizure was over, she panted for awhile so I 
told her to continue soothing her with calm words and slow petting on her 
shoulder and belly.  Any other suggestions, anyone?  I had Pomeranians that 
would seize because of the open fonatelle but were just fine within an hour and 
it rarely occurred.  I'm at a loss for senior dogs.
