My Chihuahua, Buddy, started having seizures after being with me for 6 months. He's had 4 seizures in the last month, which last about 2-5 minutes each and include shaking, foaming at the mouth, and disorientation. He becomes normal and playful within an hour after each seizure. Why are the seizures starting now, and why so many in a short time frame? Is it something in my house causing this? What tests should I do, and what treatment options are available?

I have a 6-year-old Chihuahua named BJ who has joint problems and deformed legs, causing him pain all the time.

What would you recommend for pain management and improving his condition?
