Mark Swofford of Waynesboro lives his life with help from seizure-alert dogs Mark Swofford of Waynesboro never leaves home without a four-legged friend by his side. Swofford, 45, — who suffers from seizures — always has Trixie, a 2-year-old border collie/schipperke mix, or Lily a 10-year-old German shepherd, nearby to warn him of an impending seizure. The dogs are certified seizure-alert dogs.
