Our beagle thinks he's a people and his first choice for where to be is obviously by whomever is eating something. Outside of that he naps all over the house. I have odd sleeping patterns so I'm often in bed before my husband at night and nap during the day. I've noticed that our beagle acts differently on the days when I have seizure activity.

He tends to be underfoot on those days. At first I thought I was just noticing cause I was irritable and didn't feel good. But then I noticed that instead of laying at the bottom of the bed or on my husbands side of the bed he either lays on my legs or curls up tightly beside me. Often he'll put his head on my body. And sure enough it seems to be happening when I have seizures, esp when I'm home alone.

I could be imaging it but either way, I like it. It's like a warning system.

Anyone else experience something similar?
