| The weather is still quite cold and miserable here, and although he is very much an outdoor dog I think he had a wee chill,he has been like this before and we wrapped him up and after a sleep he was fine, he is just low this time was well. At present his shivers are gone he is still a bit unsettled. Really appreciate your advice and support.

| My wee man is feeling much better now. Thanks. I didnt take him to the vet as he began to pick up pretty soon. Should I get some blood tests done to check for deficiencies? or is an occasional shiver and low mood common?

| How old is he? I guess it could've been his sugar. Don't know, I'd say if it continues to happen that you should ask the vet. Good Luck, glad your baby is feeling better.

| Yes I think I should get things checked out tomorrow. Just when I read about all the possibilities! His eating is a bit over the place just now and I need to get on top of that as he is getting a bit picky! That may explain his potential deficiencies in something. I should explain Murphy lives inside but the minute the door opens in the morning he loves to potter in the garden, go for long walks and splash about at the beach and wont come in willingly until later in the evening apart from a few naps during the day. By comparison my other two yorkies hated being outside and would whine at the door if left out too long. Murphy is a much bigger yorkie too than they were.

| Will need to check this one out im sure we have it here! Is that the solution is he is hypoglacemic? Or would he require medication also?

| Maybe his blood sugar dropped...Like diggy4 said, a little karo syrup, nutrical or honey rubbed on his gums should perk him back up.
