Usually they diagnose epilepsy by figuring what else the seizures are not, if they can’t find anything else then it’s epilepsy. It would have to be a pretty toxic food for it to be the cause of the seizures, HOWEVER it is common for food to be the trigger for seizures. Seizures are usually threshhold events. If your dog is far below their threshhold they won’t have a seizure, but if they are close to their threshhold then it is easy to push them over their threshhold and they seizure. No matter why your dog is seizuring or how often, getting toxins and chemicals out of his environment is the best way to keep him under his threshhold. That means all natural foods, no cleaning chemicals, air fresheners, scented candles, pesticides, fertilizers, etc. Good luck!
