Some dogs are more prone to seizures with rosemary and their extracts than others. Just as some dogs
may be allergic to this or that. I don't care to risk it as seizures can cause damage. I saw my daughter's
maltese gradually work up to grand mal seizures while eating a food with rosemary extract. She stopped
the food and the seizures stopped within the week and never returned. No coincidence. I also had a friend
whose dog had a seizure after ingesting one treat containing RE. She tossed the
treats and nothing since. Dwerten's dog reacted to it also, I believe. Too many stories to take lightly
for me.
