Hi there, I was doing a search on canine epilepsy and came across this site, so I thought I'd add my two pence worth!

My dog Biggles (Cairn Terrier, 9 years old, Male) has epilepsy which started at the age of approx 4 years. I have been through the usual blood tests, epiphen, KBr all that, and got well and truely sick of the pain I was putting my little pooch through.

I had heard something about homeopathy to treat canine epilepsy, so here I am trying the "alternative route" he is currently still on 15mg epiphen twice daily, along with 200mg epitaur twice daily, along with a homeopathic remedy in a drop form which he has twice daily. Has anyone tried this route??

Also, I have recently changed my dog to a natural home made diet along with burns complete dry dog food for crunchiness although I am looking into making my own dog biscuits too... all fresh fruit, veg and meat, nothing raw though, just well prepared and cooked through.

I have noticed a VAST improvement in his behaviour and general "dogginess" he is far less tense than he ever was on a commercial "meaty" diet.

Okay so I have said far too much, everyone thinks I'm insane, I think I just love my dog to bits!
