Thanks for posting this update @Derek-Groves , our Chance is 16 and he has had seizures most of his life. It just started out of nowhere when he was a few years old and for a number of years, we tried all kinds of natural and non-natural medications. We tried Chinese herbs, CBD, diet changes then the typical meds like phenobarbitol, all somewhat helped, but he would still have recurring seizures several times a month, or sometimes a week. All in all, he probably had 100 seizures in his lifetime, but luckily no major damage other than he is a bit wobbly and has head tremors once in a while. It does not seem to bother him though and he is otherwise healthy and active for a 16 yr old. Once I found Keppra through trial and error we stuck with it and that seemed to have been the best way to curb the seizures. We went from monthly to maybe once in a few years, during major events like a house move. Today he is on 250mg of Keppra + Zonisomide every 12 hours and that does the trick, if he does have a sezure (we also have concentrated CBD tincture, which we keep bedside, injecting it into his mouth gets him out of it pretty quickly and speeds up recover. We ended up sticking a particular manufacturer for Keppra (Lupin labs), just to make sure no formula variation is introduced.
My New Female Basenji Puppy Snores Does yours?
-
Our newest addition to our pack is a cute 4 month old Tri Basenji. We noticed that not only does she enjoy sleeping with her legs straight up in the air while she is on her back, but she also Snores loud enough we can hear it over a lower volume TV.
She appears to be laying on her side with her head turned into her chest and her feet stuck straight out in her crate when she snores.
We understand that no two dogs are exactly alike. Our 4 year old male has never snored. We also understand she is very young and still developing so we wonder if others have had the same experience with their basenjis when they were young?
-
Yeah, our boy pup Loki can really cut some logs as well when sleeping.
-
My three and a half year old female snores sometimes, usually when she has her nose buried under something. My basenji/sheltie mix snores most of the time if she is sleeping with her body curled, Once she stretches out, it stops. They've always done this, so I expect it's not unusual.
-
Watson also snores if he lies in certain positions…he has done this since he was a 4 month old baby as well.
-
OMG yes! We will be watching TV when she starts and her volume slowly escalates. We mute the TV and look at her and realize how lucky we are to have such a great B!
-
