Hi there and thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! In addition to medication provided by your veterinarian, there is a special diet you can place Jig on that has been proven to help reduce the frequency of seizure activity in dogs. The food is called Purina Pro Plan Neurocare and may be available through your veterinarian. It can also be found through online retailers but does require a prescription from your veterinarian to obtain. I hope this helps and thanks again for posting!
