"Epilepsy in dogs is characterized by seizures. If they are short and infrequent, a dog may not need anticonvulsant medication. If the seizures are more severe, a dog is a candidate for a lifetime supply of phenobarbital, Valium or some other drug used to prevent seizures.
Progressive retinal atrophy (PRA) is the wasting away of the vessels in the retina. Initially manifested as night blindness in young dogs, as PRA progresses, its victims become totally blind."
