They can also occur in dogs with no previous seizure activity but that have had an injury to the brain, exposed to toxins such as massive amounts of chocolate, pesticides and poisons or they can be the result of disease. I believe that it is possible for the dog to become paralyzed, but it would probably depend on the level of injury to the brain. You should however, check this with your veteranarian. I am so sorry to hear about Doxie. Sending you both my best.</p>CaxieCaxiefemale49answer3.0Mon, 12 Oct 2009 14:54:09 GMThttp://yedda.com/questions/Help_Doxie_dogs_pets_504180583796059/Status_epilepticus_seizures_occur_627941256378636?src=rss:qb:qbi
