8 week old male british Bulldog who suffers seizures since 4 weeks – now on medication to control this but owner wanted to ask if it is possible (with a referral ) to have acupuncture on a puppy?

I really struggle with the minds of owners of a disaster breed with horrible heritable diseases and includes epilepsy from 4 wks old - I'm thinking euthanase, ban the breeder & the breed as the most humane response! Do we want to pander to these requests holding out a very uncertain prognosis for acupuncture response in one so young, added to the predictable quality of life compromise for the breed? Or am I just a GOM?!
