Over the last several years, we have done extensive reading and research into epilepsy
and topics that are related to epilepsy in an indirect or direct way. We wrote several
articles on conditions that may cause epilepsy and how those conditions
relate to Korie.
The article on test breeding discusses the
problems of a test breeding and the
support required to get involved with a legitimate test breeding.
The article on genetics (when completed) tries to solve a genetic
statistics problem.
The article on ethics is interesting since it
maps out the
subconscious thought
process that one goes through to make a decision. This thought process is
then applied to a breeder in their decision to mate 2 dogs.
As the "parent" of an epileptic, our lives have changed by the introduction of
something that somewhat controls us. Over the last several years, we have learned to control Korie's, epilepsy, but not without a struggle. This article The Fears of Epilepsy illustrates what the owner of an epileptic must overcome to live with their epi kid.
The links or web sites section will take the
surfer to other sites that are related to canine
epilepsy and some extremely interesting reading, and other canine
related sites.
The book
page lists some good reading material. The subjects vary from
breeding, genetics, holistic treatment, epilepsy, animal neurology and
general animal health care. Korie has most of them in her library.
