Why is my Dog Trembling?

Q: My little poodle-bichon mix began trembling quite intensely recently. The trembling is so intense that it feels like her little heart is going to explode. Is she afraid of something or sick?

A: Dogs can tremble for a variety of reasons. While it is possible that she is scared of something it seems unlikely since you describe the trembling as intense.

I think it is very important that your pet be examined by a veterinarian. They can perform routine blood tests to check your pets' electrolytes, blood sugar levels, etc. It is a possibility that your vet may wish to refer you to a veterinary neurologist if they feel that it is necessary.
