I have a 1 year old Rottweiler and he has been having seizures for quite some time. Most of the time he can come out of a seizure and be fine, but 2 days ago he had a seizure that I believe may have caused irreversible damage. Unfortunately, I can not afford to have him treated, and I know he is suffering. Right now, he does not even know who I am and that is not like him. He is not eating and his body appears to be shaking in spasms. My children and I love him dearly and we are so afraid of him being in pain. We do not want to see him suffer. What can I do to help him.

Seizures can occur at any age. However, he needs to see a vet, have tests and b e put on medication or whatever. If you can't afford this, you need to have him humanely put to sleep so he doesn't suffer. You can appeal to your local rottweiler rescue group to see if they have funds to help with the finances.
