As a certified veterinary technologist, I am VERY excited about this channel! We need more veterinary you tubers to bring light to how serious our jobs really are. I did an internship in a neurology department at a specialty hospital and it was for sure one of my favorite departments to be in. Subscribed 😌
I love animals so much. This breaks my heart. Poor babies. I wanted to be a vet, but I can’t handle seeing animals Ill. They’re too precious to go through anything like that
This is very interesting! Im interested in neurology, I never got a chance to go to med school but I still like the subject a lot. Thanks for making this video!
My dog had a seizure a couple of months before we put her down, but I never saw it myself (alerted by a family member). I remember her just lying on the ground, unable to get up or move and it had to be one of the scariest things I have ever seen in my life. This video reminded me of that. Thanks for the informative video!
Great video!! As a medical student it’s nice to look for similarities between Human and Vet Med 😁. Maybe you could talk about ‘One Health’ in a future video
@@DVMCellini yay! I work in a Specialty clinic that has all the specialties, Tesla MRI, CT and nuclear imaging and I’ll be starting a RU-vid channel for vet med as well, vlog style and also specialty interviews and VMX vlogging. Hopefully get a great inside look at vet med
Thank you so much! Im a veterinarian from Mexico and I was following your brother because my husband wants to be a radiologist, when I saw his announcement in his RU-vid page I literally jump of emotion hahaha. Thank you so much! It is really helpful to watch this kind of videos to know what to do when a dog gets in the clinic. Please keep uploading!
new subscriber that also came from you brothers channel-- but i am an emergency vet tech and see seizures very frequently (the only neurologist in the province is at the hospital i work at, so most things get referred to us). maybe in another video you can talk about symptoms of an impending seizure (ie. fly biting, focal seizures, etc) for clients! anyway, cool video idea! looking forward to what else you might put out!
Hello, I'm a new Sub... thanks to your brother for letting me know you started a channel. Nice to meet you. Excited to see all the content you put out that I can learn from.
Thats crazy i feel like thats an alternate version of Micheal x)) I always liked Dr Cellini's videos, and im absolutely interested in veterinary medecine so im really happy abt this channel, goodluck with whats coming next!! ♡
Our (late) Lab had seizures for a few years, often lasting up to 14 minutes. We witnessed maybe 6-8 of them and it was traumatic. However, thankfully they disappeared on their own. Recently read the shampoo we had used for her was dangerous, maybe that was it. Hard to know. I appreciate the commentary and your calm expertise. I've definitely learned more than i had known.
The thing that alerted us to lymphoma in our last Golden was a seizure. Scariest thing I’ve ever seen. He flew backwards down a hallway, it was like something from The Exorcist. I pet my dog ALL the time and love them more than life itself .. I didn’t notice a single lymph node.
I really liked this. The only drawback for me is that I want more info. As u explained you mentioned little kernels like how grand mal are supposed to be under 5 mins, they’re exhausting, etc. As with Dr Michael Cellini, I want more info. SUPER cool stuff! Thank u for posting
You just made me more confused about if I should go to med or vet med uni 😂. I love dogs more than anything but I don't think that I could see them in pain and the owners often don't even want to pay vet care. Keep the videos coming. ❤️🇧🇷
thanks and yeah that's a difficult choice. maybe consider the cost of going to either and the end point in terms of earning potential and quality of life.
Subscribed but oh my gosh these videos brought me to actual tears. Following your content but not sure if I can watch these pups and owners going through this. Great awareness though, I will be sure to watch for this in my pups!
I'm here because of your brother, on top of the fact that my sweet dog just came from the vet because he seem to have the catching flies syndrome.. I am so scared because he hit his head.
My 9 year old cattle dog has recently started to have seizures. They are non convulsive seizures Very distressing for her Taking her to the vet ASAP to see if anything can be done
Awesome video, our rescued pup was diagnosed with epilepsy. We noticed him defecating in his bed, and oddly spinning in circles daily. Fortunately, he’s doing great after being put on medication! He was rescued from a hoarding case, could it be possible that he developed this seizure disorder through trauma?
We suspect my previous dog of having mild seizures every so often. We adopted him from a shelter and had no background on him, not even a correct age. It turned out he was older and had a spinal issue that, years later towards the end we had to get him on pain and inflammation meds.
Wow scary seeing full blown Gran Mal seizures... Can you do a video about non typical signs of seizures or focal seizures? My Shiba Inu has been exhibiting fly biting behavior every couple of days, stares blankly at nothing it seems proceeding to do couple snaps in the air at nothing. I've been reading it up and our primary vet seems to agree that he could possibly be focal seizures. Physical exam, Blood work and urinalysis were normal. Would you recommend a neurologist referral (I probably don't live close to one) before trying an antiseizure med trial to see if the fly biting behavior stops? Looking forward to seeing more content!
yeah i think either a neurologist, internist, or behaviorist would be best people to talk to. fly biting can be behavioral or seizure in origin so the medication used to treat it would depend on the cause.
Just started binging your channel. Have you ever watched dog-centered movies with your vet-mindset? Something like 'The Plaque Dogs', 'Marley & Me', the Air-Bud movies, 'Hachiko', etc?
Here from your Brother's channel. Have yiu ever seen a Tonic Clonic/Grand Mal in Avians? I have two cockatiels who have what myself and my Avian vet thinks are seizures. They flip their heads side to side and shake throughout the body. Than half a minute or so where they are very out of it. Usually an exiciting event like coming out of the cage, nail trims etc does this. These birds were cage bound for 9+ years, so coming out etc is not the norm for them and they seem to get too excited.
I haven't personally just because I don't work with birds with any real frequency. But epilepsy in birds is a known and described condition for sure. Maybe talk to your vet about medications for seizures to see if it helps and if its right for them to try.
Your Brother sent me here. Oh my those poor dogs. Do u do EEGs on dogs? Don't they have to go on meds? How did u decide to be a annimal neurologist? It will interesting following your videos. Thank u
EEG is not readily available everywhere like it is with human neurology. As far as I know its at academic institutions and very few private practices. I don't use it in my practice but would like to one day if I can get my hands on one and get some practice with it.
my roommate has epilepsy and has a seizure every once in a while the seizires the dogs are experiencing here in the video appear to be identical to what he goes through, so im guessing the aftermath is the same, just sleeping it off for a few houres.
Hello, About a month ago our dog (2 yr old male pug) was very lethargic and looking up in the air almost as if he was seeing something that wasn’t there. We took him to the vet thinking possibly seizures or something may come. ( Google paranoia)They said that possibly he may have gotten into something toxic, nuts or something. They decided not to do bloodwork. Sent him home with some medication. About a month and a half later the same situation, he’s looking up as if there’s something above him but there’s nothing there, his eyes are watery with boogers ( discharge) and lethargic. Still eating if you bring him food, but completely not himself. Going to make a vet appointment, does it sound like it may be a neurological issue? What should I request the vet do for a test so they don’t try to give me the run around with multiple tests and a lot of $$? Last time the vet decided not to do bloodwork, she said trying to save some money. But I was worried that it may have been a neurological issue, he is a two year male pug. Thank you
i can't really say what you should do or have your vet do. what i can say, is that if you're concerned about a neuro problem talk to your vet about referral to a neurologist.
How should the owner manage the seizure? Stroke, talk, water cool the body, stand by but not touch? Friends dog has started seizing and she has had conflicting instructions from vets. Thanks.
Hiii! Could you talk about arthritis in dogs front legs? My dog started w front leg pain about a week ago. Vet said it could be arthritis but how can i help him? And care for him? Pleasee help me! Thank you!
What testing do you recommend for a dog who’s had seizures every 1-6 months since we got him at 4 months (he’s 6.5yrs now). We’ve been told to not worry unless the seizure lasts 5+ minutes
I'd recommend you see either a neurologist or if there isn't one near you, an internal medicine specialist if you want to get seizures evaluated further. I can't recommend a specific test but they can certainly talk to you about things like MRI to look for a brain lesion. Best of luck!
Can you do a video on IVDD?! My dog recently had X-rays done and has complete mineralization of certain discs and partial mineralization of other discs and a possible protrusion of T12-13. He’s currently on meds and I’m doing crate rest to see if we can avoid surgery.
I have a question. I've been hearing from a lot of pet owners that orijen pet food can cause dog to have seizure. We've been feeding our dog orijen for 4 years now, and we always have to hear this every time we check out. Thank for the video
I know there was a class action lawsuit recently filed against them for heavy metals present in the food, but I'm not sure if that was actually proven. Regardless, I'm not aware of any diet specifically and directly causing a seizure. It would take a diet that is tainted in some way, and in those cases you're gonna see a sick pet basically all the time, and not a pet that has sporadic seizures and is normal in between.
Bloodwork is always a good place to start with most problems. Maybe talk to your vet about whether or not medications are needed or talk about a referral to a neurologist!
Hi again! I was wondering if u could do a video on dogs and cancer. Our teddy bear toy poodle was dx with cancer of the jaw at 6 weeks old. She had a emergency surgery. The lesion was long. All the slices they did still were malignant. It was in jaw bone. They thought she may be left looking like she had a stroke as they had to remove part of jaw and reconstruct it. Did a awesome job! But how does a 6 week old get cancer in the first place Has 9 siblings. None have it. Sorry this is long should of said nothing.
I'll probably do nervous system cancer at some point. Not sure about non-CNS/PNS cancer as I don't really deal with those that often. I will hopefully be getting other specialists on to interview though, oncologist included, so stay tuned!
@@kaitlinwenke2735 there’s nothing educational about this video... missing everything that can qualify it as educational. It was torture to watch uncontrollably sick dogs loose their control- some may define educational as something else, but it isn’t this video.
