Are Siberian Huskies genetically pre-disposed to suffer from Epilepsy (siezures of unknown origin)?

0

No. However, Epilepsy does occur in the breed. The siezures are not, generally speaking, life threatening, but if your dog does have a siezure, you should have your dog checked by a veterinarian to rule out the many other possible causes. If, in the end, Epilepsy is the diagnosis, siezures are usually controlable with medication (Dilantin or Phenobarbital are usually prescribed).
