Animals come into our lives as gifts from God, for companionship, to teach us, and to heal us. They deserve our very best efforts in caring for them.

Beneficial Vitamins and Supplements

Canine Seizure Remedies - Vitamins and Supplements


Daily doses of vitamins and supplements that are beneficial to the nervous system should be fed to an epileptic dog.

Vitamin B1

Vitamin B1 is essential for helping brain function.

Fatty Acids

Fatty acids (fish oil, flaxseed oil, evening primrose oil, or borage oil) can reduce inflammation and degeneration of brain tissue.

Dimethyglycine (DMG)

DMG is a compound that is produced naturally in both humans and animals. It forms an intricate part of animal and human metabolism. It also has antiviral, antibacterial, and anti-fugal properties. In animals, DMG also has anti-seizure effects.

Here is a natural product of DMG: Vetri-Science Vetri-DMG Liquid

Amino acids

The amino acids L-taurine and L-tyrosine can increase the resistance to seizures. The amino acid L-tryptohpan can soothe the brain and is therefore beneficial for dogs with seizures.

God's Love

Thank You God for the overwhelming comfort I feel from knowing You are there.
