    Con este trabajo intentamos aporrar algunas consideraciones prácticas sobre la problemática de trastornos convulsivos en el perro y del diagnóstico del ataque epiléptico idiopático y síncope cardiogénico en la especie animal. Para ello presentamos 8 casos clínicos de animales llevados a la consulta de nuestro departamento y que, en algún momento, presentan lo que los propietarios denominaron como «ataques». En estos animales, además del estudio cardiogénico se realizaron análisis de calcio, fósforo, glucosa, recuentos de glóbulos totales, fórmula leucocitaria y proteínograma, cuyos resultados son discutidos en cada caso. Asimismo resaltamos la importancia de la anamnesis en el diagnóstico de estos procesos y proponemos el protocolo a seguir en estas situaciones. * This paper attempts to provide some practical considerations on tbe problems of convulsive disorders in dogs and on the diagnosis of idiopathic epilep tic attacks and cardiogenic syncope in animals. With this ainm eight cases of animals brought to the surgery in our department, who at one stage bad suffered «attacks» according to their owners, are presented. All the animals undervient a cardiogenic study as well as analyses including calcium, phosphorus, blood glucose, blood counts and differential, and a proteinogram, the results of which are discussed for each case. Likewise, the importance of the anamnesis is emphasized to reach a diagnosis of these disorders and a protocol is proposed for such situations.
