How to Detect a Seizure Coming on in a Dog

1). Take notice of slight behavior changes in your dog. A dog's mood will change in the days or hours preceding a seizure. The dog may act out of the ordinary during this time.
2). Pay close attention to your dog after noticing small changes in its behavior or demeanor. This is when more changes will occur that could alert you to an oncoming seizure.
3). Take notice of your dog if it begins to shake or tremble without reason.
4). Follow your dog if it begins looking for a hiding spot. Some dogs will do the opposite and purposely seek you out during this time.
5). Take your dog to a soft carpeted area if it suddenly exhibits the previously mentioned signs. Other signs of an oncoming seizure are apprehension and nervousness.
