There's no cure for epilepsy in dogs but there are medications available.

My lab has epilepsy, we tried the medications but he didn't react well to them. One vet told us to start feeding him green beans. He's been seizure free since we've been doing this.

How often does your dog have seizures?

Has your vet recommended any medication?

How old is your dog and what breed is he?

i know that there is no cure, but the vet use to came to check on him but now that is no necessary I'm giving him special vitamins for dogs also and some others pills for epilepsy but the thing is that he is 10 years old and the vet say that he has more weight than other dogs so that is one more reason. he is having attacks or i don't know haw you are saying on one month ,one day less or more but usually is 28 or 30, days. but anyway thanks a lot i will start giving him green beans.

My dog would have numerous seizures every day, he'd lose bladder control and foam at the mouth.

Try the green beans for at least a month and let me know if you notice a difference.
