She is shaking almost as frequently as she is breathing. It’s coming from her core but her back legs are also shaking very profusely
It sounds like your dog is experiencing frequent shaking, which can be concerning. There are several potential causes for this behavior, ranging from mild to more serious conditions. Let's explore a few possibilities together.
Firstly, shaking can sometimes indicate pain or discomfort. This might be due to an injury or an internal issue. I recommend checking your dog for any signs of injury or tenderness, particularly in her legs and abdomen.
Another possibility is anxiety or stress. Dogs often shake when they are feeling anxious or stressed. Think about any recent changes in her environment or routine that might be contributing to her stress levels.
If the weather is cold, your dog might be shaking to generate warmth. Make sure she is comfortable and warm to rule out this possibility.
In some cases, shaking can be a sign of neurological issues. This would require a professional evaluation to diagnose properly.
Lastly, consider whether your dog might have been exposed to toxins or is experiencing an illness, as these can also cause shaking. Reflect on whether she might have ingested something unusual recently.
For now, ensure she is in a comfortable and calm environment. Keep an eye out for any additional symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhea, or changes in behavior. If the shaking continues or worsens, or if you notice other concerning symptoms, it would be wise to consult a veterinarian to rule out any serious conditions.
