Seizure activity that is this frequent is concerning. Chance needs to be examined by a vet to figure out what is causing the seizures. If an underlying cause cannot be found, he can be started on anti-seizure medications. I would be very worried about a dog have this many seizures so close together. Please get him to your vet for an exam as soon as you can. http://www.veterinarypartner.com/Content.plx?P=A&S=0&C=0&A=560
