Our 5 1/2-year-old Labrador has been having regular grand mal seizures for a month, with no previous history of seizures. Bloodwork results are normal, and the vet suggests it might be idiopathic epilepsy. What treatment options are available, and how might they affect my dog's mental functioning?

My 10-year-old Welsh Terrier woke up gagging and later vomited clear water with a few seconds of debris. She has had messy bowel movements with blood tinges, labored breathing, and appears ill. She has a history of disappearing and possibly eating cat food. What should I do given I'm on a fixed income and can't afford a vet bill?
