In this episode, host Alyssa Watson, DVM, talks with Michaela Beasley, DVM, MS, MBA, CCRP, DACVIM (Neurology), about her recent Clinician’s Brief article, “Seizure Management in a Fractious Dog.” Dr. Beasley discusses the complexities of seizure management in dogs, particularly those exhibiting fearful or aggressive behavior. She reviews the case of Bully, a young Labrador with idiopathic epilepsy, exploring his diagnosis, treatment options, and the rationale behind choosing specific anticonvulsants. Dr. Beasley covers the importance of monitoring medication effects, potential side effects, and the role of diet and ancillary therapies in managing seizures.
