I have a non-eating Yorkie that I joined this forum just to get some help! I also understand the shaking. My little Christopher had a first hard year and came to me after that. I have learned that when he shakes, he is hurt, scared, or sick. He is a very independent little guy but wants to be held at those times. Once upon arriving back home, he met me with his head down, his tail tucked and shaking. It took me a little while, but I finally was able to figure that he had somehow twisted his leg, and we took a trip to the vet. I echo what the others have said, at those times, patience is needed, but give him LOTS of love and attention and those times will get further and further apart. He is a lucky little fellow to have someone who cares.
