Please Help! Why is she Shaking??

[ProfessorPeteZa]

Hi All
I am worried about my lil 20 week baby here. she is about 4.5lbs
She went to the groomers yesterday (just got her feet, sanitary, and face done). When she came back she was her regular sorta sleepy after bath self. I didnt think anything of it. She napped a lil bit and was back to bouncing off the walls and playing. We went for our regular long walk in the evening in which she was inspecting everything.We had a couple of guests and she was quite energetic. She went to bed alright and woke me up at 4am for pee, which is unusual for her since she sleeps thru the night. either way we went out and she did her stuff. while we were out though (and it was very dark) she kept catching lil bugs and eating them or trying to eat them (i got some away from her).
Yesterday she had her morning snack (yogurt, apples, and bananas) and her dinner. She usually eats a lil Canidae before sleep and sometimes a lil during the day. However yesterday she didnt eat any dry food.
Just now, I tried to take her on her morning stroll which usually she loves because we run back home and she likes to race me. Well I barely made it down the drive way. let alone to the park. she just didnt want to move. Then when i looked at her closely I saw that she was shivering. albeit it was a lil breezy but by no means cold (about 73 degress). I had to pick her up put her on the grass for her to do her business. She didnt really wanna walk home she looked really tired by the look of her eyes and still every 30 seconds or so, she would shake. Two ladies jogged by and she seemed her regular social self. which made me happy but still the shaking worries me a lot.

When we just got in I gave her some nutrical. INSTEAD of just a snack I gave her some wet canned dog food warmed up. she ate it all up and is just sleeping now. she was shaking this whole time up until 10 mins ago (maybe it stopped bc shes sleeping i dunno).

I apologize for being long winded but I just wanted to mention her stressful day yesterday just in case it had any bearing on whats happening today. Is there something else I should do? Should I be worried? Will it pass? Is she ok now that shes not shaking and is just sleeping? She wasnt shaking violently just enough that if u really looked at her ud see it. Im just really worried because I dont want to take any chances with her. Please, any advice?

I don't know what to say. Matty is 3 1/2 pounds and she has times when she shivers too, but it always passes and she is fine. Giving her the Nutrical certainly can't hurt her, but I don't think it was a reaction from the previous day.

Mogli used to shiver when he'd come back from the groomer for a week or two ... I always attributed it to the fact that he'd go from bigfoot the hairy monster to a shaved little beauty ...

If she's acting normal, just shivering, I'd leave it be. But at 20 weeks you also may want to get a vet-look-over ...

I dont think so either but I just wanted to be cautious and thought id mention it. she's not a "tiny" (almost 4.5lbs!)or anything thats why i thought it was weird. im glad to hear that it just passes though. thanks for replying.

she was acting normal yesterday. its just this morning. and she already taking a nap. she usually wakes up at 7am and goes for a nap btwn 1030-1130. this morning she slept in and was only in for about 20 mins before she went down for a nap. hopefully, its just one of those days where shes tired?

I dont have any advice, V. I just hope Bindi is ok. Hopefully she was just exhausted from the grooming. Maybe they were a little rough with her or there were a lot of bigger dogs barking and shes still nervous from that? Let me know how she is throughout the day tho!

[ProfessorPeteZa]

oh yeah, lol shes doing just fine now. after her nap she was back to her regular nosy self lol. we went for our long walk/run in the park and now shes just watching ugly betty and chewing on her nylabone :-D i suppose i overreacted.

no, you didn't overreact. Things can go downhill so quickly with these little ones, it's great to have a place to go to vent your concerns. I'm glad to hear that she's back to herself!

Now...what about posting those newly groomed pics?
