<p>I welcome any and all comments and perspectives. That is how we learn. It is also a great way to support each other just bouncing ideas off each other. Keep the comments coming! Happy Thanksgiving to all! I myself am very thankful for every day with my adorable handful of a puppy!</p>

<p>Hi Angela, You may not have got it wrong. I deleted my last comment because I do not feel I wrote this clearly and I had not realised that Sue had received the results from Hemopet. (It was late at night here and I was feeling exhausted).</p>

<p>I don't think the neurological condition ,epilepsy, is anyway related to ears being flushed .I certainly have never had mine done!</p>

<p>Thanks much for the information. I try to give Nugget a spoonful of yoghurt (with active culture) daily, per the advice of the breeder. I wonder if I should be giving him more? There certainly are a lot of things to consider. It is amazing that the two setters we had over thirty years ago never had any problems and we most certainly didn't do anything special back then. We could barely feed ourselves! I still think that over-breeding has caused many of the problems with the beautiful…</p>

<p>Nugget had his ears flushed a little over a month before his first seizure. He still gets a lot of build up in and around the ear canal and doesn't like to sit still for frequent or thorough cleanings!</p>
<p>Hemopet thyroid results came back normal; actually better than the first ones I had done through my vet. So it seems he may indeed be epileptic.</p>

<p>Ok Sue, now I am realy wondering if we may have found a connection, Abbie had her ears flushed out two months before her first fit. How does this compare to Nuggets treatment, time scale ?</p>
<p>I would be very interested if any other owner of an epileptic dog has had the same treatment done.</p>
