Epilepsy in Canine (Small Breeds)

Gain valuable insight into Canine Epilepsy in Small-Breed Dogs in this specialised presentation by Prof. Dr. Mike Chan, created for veterinarians, veterinary neurologists, and caring pet owners. Epilepsy is a neurological disorder caused by abnormal brain electrical activity, leading to repeated seizures that may present as subtle focal episodes or severe generalised convulsions. In small breeds, genetic predisposition, metabolic issues, or structural brain abnormalities may contribute to the condition. Observable signs can include sudden collapse, involuntary muscle movements, excessive salivation, confusion, and behavioural changes following seizures. Diagnosis relies on a thorough history, neurological examination, bloodwork, advanced imaging, and EEG testing where appropriate. Management uses a comprehensive, holistic plan—pairing conventional anti-epileptic therapy and supportive lifestyle adjustments with regenerative treatments such as PSC (Precursor Stem Cell Therapy), FOP (Frozen Organo Peptides), FOC (Frozen Organo Cryogenics), and advanced TopPetPro innovations like MITO Peptide Organotherapy, NANO Peptide Organotherapy, etc.—to stabilise neurological activity, protect brain health, and improve overall wellbeing.
