I assume you mean seizures. Most seizures can be controlled by affordable medications from your vet. If they aren't controlled serious complications can occur. Make an appt. to discuss this with your vet.

Seizures are "normal" for dogs with epilepsy, brain tumors, etc.. Still, they need to be controlled. It doesn't matter how old your dog is... the important thing is trying to keep the quality of life. That being said, take the dog to the vet. If your vet really said it is normal... find a new vet. It is no life for a dog to always be having seizures.

Some seizures are not life threatening and some are. Only a vet can determine, through testing, what is causing the seizures and how serious they are.

Have you taken it to the vet?
The vet can give you much better information regarding seizures and your dog than we can.

Not necessarily.
Just as human beings have seizures, bats, dogs, cats and monkeys can all have seizures.
You should probably check with a veterinarian.
