| The Shakes I was just wondering does anyones Yorkie Shake? (i know its not because she is cold) I have a 7 month old Yorkie, & she only shakes when we are doing something new, Like a car ride or walk. Is that normal?

| N'Stein is shaking when he is excited....seeing new people....when he know's he will have a cookie.....if I give him a new toy. When he is in my arms and he is in front of somebody he is shaking because he wants to meet that person, and I hate that when people are telling me " ha poor doggy he's afraid!!!" "no, it's excitement"

| My little fur babies shake during a thunderstorm or when they arrive at the vet's office. It is perfectly normal. |

| Daphne is a shaker. When we go to puppy class or to a new store, she shakes, rattles and thankfully does not roll! I just talk to her in a soft voice and cuddle to calm her down.

| Punkin is a shaker - but as time goes on it's less and less. She always shook in the car for the first while and now she doesn't do it all. |

| I think most Yorkies shake. I have a dozen and they all shake to some degree. people always say "are they cold?" or "are they scared?". I just say it is a Yorkie thing... |

| Jaxon is a bigtime shaker! Anything new or when he gets excited. I'll grab his sweater to take him for a walk and he starts shaking because he's so anxious to go! |

| im so glad for this topic i have been on the computer for hours looking up everything I could about yorkies. I never had one before, and I got a tiny one- 3 1/2 lbs at 1 1/2 years old. I have been scared to death that she is so tiny, but I got her for a cheap price because the lady doesnt think she will breed. ( only $400) but anyway, she wont eat anything- just licks the soft food off of the dry royal canin i give her, until about 11pm, then she chews up the kibble. I offer her food 3 times a day. She shakes a lot and i was scared she was too cold-and being small couldnt keep herself warm, so i got hr clothes and blankets, but she shakes still. If i take her in the car, she shakes and pants. I have been worried sick that my ignorance will end up killing her, but it looks like she must be normal.... |

| Oscar is only nervous about thunderstorms and that is only since lightning came through the window and hit a television set when everyone was asleep! But he does not shake...he runs like crazy...when he is happy, he runs, when he is scared, he runs...I guess some are MOVERS and some are SHAKERS...no pun intended...just had to throw that one in! LOL Small dogs and shaking seem to go hand in hand. I had a Chihuahua that shook all the time but he was a very nervous dog.
