These are extremely long seizures, i am surprised your dog is still alive with those very long seizures. seizures can be caused by many diseases but the vast majority of dogs with seizures is from an unknown reason. treatment for seizures is usually the same for all dogs, it's a medication that needs to be taken on a daily basis, this medication can only be prescribed by a vet.
