I noticed that the smaller the dog, the more he or she shakes, for the most part. Maddie doesn't shake at all unless I give her a bath or have to yell if she's doing something dangerous...so appropriately I guess. But Sophie shakes ALL the time...worried, anxious, excited, etc. EVERYTHING does it to her. She's the baby and weighs around 3 lbs...I sometimes wonder if she gets more frightened because of her size... | |

Boy do you have Luna trained..lol..coming from the bow queen! Anyway - Izzy is the same way - she is very well socialized and loves people and kids especially. But when we go to a new environment with lots of people she will shake and they always ask me if she is scared. I don't think she is but maybe excited to be there because once we are there for 5-10 minutes she stops shaking.

| Mine is still small. She is 3 pounds and 5 months... Maybe she just is insecured still... Sometimes she shakes when I bring her downstairs, it seems like she is afraid of height or something! And she definitely doesn't like the dark When I give her a bath she shakes and her front paws just keep on going and if she was trying to swim away from me! It's really cute

| Koda doesn't do much shaking unless it's right after his bath so i hold him wrapped in a towel till he stops. Allie though she would shake a lot. Especially when she was nervous. Her whole little body would tremble so i would snuggle her till she was settled down and then some. She was such a babydoll :..-( |

| Sawyer is a shaker too. he shakes when I run the vacumn, and when he thinks I am going to give him a bath. he will come right to me if I say lets fix your hair; but if he sees me getting his bath things out he shakes and shivers.

| Shaking yorkies Freyja is a shaker. Sometimes there's a reason like: I am going out without her or we are going for a ride in the car (she seems to love the car!) She shakes so hard she vibrates. I guess she is a bit high strung. Patti & Freyja |

| Jake has always been this way, but as he has gotten older and more socialized, he really doesn't shake much when he gets excited or is in a new place. He used to shake when I first was able to take him outside after he had his shots, but once he got used to it, he LOVES it. Jackson, on the other hand, never shakes. He is SO tough for a yorkie!! I've never seen anything like it!

| Logan shakes when he gets excited to see someone and almost always when we go outside now that it has cooled down some. I thought it was just him! |

| Bella is an emotional shaker too. She shakes when she get's excited, when I give her a bath (she doesn't like it) and when she is cold.

| My Jake has always been a shaker. I was so worried about him when we first got him thinking he was shaking because he was sick. His head shaking reminds me of a person with parkinsons disease. The vet said she thought he was fine but didn't know why he was shaking, so after awhile and he was still thriving I didn't worry anymore (he is 6 years old now). Sometimes he doesn't shake at all, but then other times (especially when he is excited or nervous) his head shakes really bad. It is just his head, not his whole body. It is good to know He isn't the only yorkie that does this. But to the person that thinks it is only in small dogs, I guess there is exceptions to all rules, Jake is 15 pounds! Huge |

| My only Yorkie that shakes is Cash, the first time he did I got so scared I took him to the vet and the vet said it's nothing he's just excited or scared, lots of little ones do it Now every time he knows he's going to the vet his little lip just trembles, it really is cute The only other time I see him tremble is when he's going to get snack It's like he's so happy he can't help but tremble
