Scrappy dappy doo

Hi,

I am the owner of the cutest pup named scrappy dappy doo. (Chihuahua mix). Scrappy has lived a very healthy life up until Jan 31st around 10 am when he experienced his 1st seizure (which was a terrifying experience to go through for both of us). His seizure lasted about 3-4 minutes. I instantly rushed him to the vet where shortly after arriving he had his 2nd seizure. They immediately rushed him to the back where they gave him medication to stop the seizure and put him on fluids and kept him all day for monitoring which he ended up doing well with up until it was time for them to close. They had recommended I take him to and overnight ER to be monitored longer due to him having yet another seizure right before releasing him to me. Before leaving the vets office we gave him his 1st dose of seizure control medication and than I took him to stay at the ER over night. He did well with no seizures throughout the night, and I picked him up in the AM. Shortly after arriving home I settled him in and got him comfortable and we started to fall asleep when he went into his 4th seizure and this time it lasted a little longer, he displayed more intense reactions, and he didn't bounce back as quickly as the times before so my vet said to bring him in immediately. Upon arriving they gave him more meds and examined his current condition and after effects of these 4 seizures. Afterwards, they decided to up his dosage of seizure control medication, and send him home. They determined if I cannot afford to keep him there to have extra fluids and more monitoring that I need to stay home (miss work) to be with him, and monitor him and give him a higher dose of medication the next time he is do for a dosage.

Upon returning home he had his 5th and longest seizure which was way worse than any he had prior. Upon his seizure ending, it took him about 30 mins to come out of his posticular behavior ( walking in circles, not using his front legs , and very confused and extremely tired ) the vet told me to bring him in, but unfortunately I am out of funds and have spent every dollar I have in the last 48 hrs trying to help him before serious damage is caused. So they told me to give him the higher dose of his seizure medication ( 30/40mins earlier than the time it was suppos to be given) in the meantime, and now I'm on the edge of my nerves hoping to get through every second until his next dosage. I am continuously praying that he doesn't have any more seizures in the 8 hrs in-between his doses. They highly recommend I take him to a neuro specialist for animals but unfortunately the visit alone is $250 to start not including any additional testing or medication they will require...but I don't know how much longer myself, or my dog can continue to endure this trial and error before we find out what will control, and manage these seizures. Because they believe it is a case of epilepsy that he will have for the rest of his life, which can be manageable but unfortunately I do not have the funds to do so. So, here I am asking even if it's just 1$ of a donation, every cent will make a difference for scrappy. Please join together in helping me get scrappy the help he needs to get this under control, and get him back to living his happy Normal life. I know in some people eyes animals are just pets, but not in this family. My animals mean the world to me, I would sell my soul if I could, if it meant saving them. They are no different as any blood relative, or child I gave birth to. They depend on us as humans to love, and protect them, and they love us unconditionally. & I just want to be able to help my furbaby when he is too helpless to help himself.. so please help me, help him ❤️ ANYTHING HELPS and everything counts.
