Why would aspirin prevent seizures? Get your dog to the vet... Actually, aspirin does have some anti-seizure effect. See, e.g., Aspirin modulates the anticonvulsant effect of diazepam and sodium valproate in pentylenetetrazole and maximal electroshock induced seizures in mice. Srivastava AK, Gupta YK. Neuropharmacology Laboratory, Department of Pharmacology, All India Institute Of Medical Sciences, New Delhi-110 029. Evaluation of antiepileptic activity of aspirin in combination with newer antiepileptic lamotrigine in mice. Tandon M, Anuradha K, Pandhi P. Department of Pharmacology, Postgraduate Institute of Medical Education & Research, Chandigarh-160012, India. What isn't in these two articles is information of a practical nature for canine epilepsy. Run it by your vet, but I would not be surprised if it might be of some benefit.

At the end of the day, the rule of thumb to follow is simple: Never give your dog aspirin, other NSAIDs, acetaminophen, or medication of any kind unless directed to do so by your veterinarian. When aspirin is given under the guidance of a veterinarian and given in the proper dosage, it's safe.
