shivering The weather has had a drastic change from warm to cold in Cali. My little zooey is shivering. Is that normal? She has clothes on, my other fur baby is. A teapot, and acting fine. Zooey is barely 5 lbs. Could it be she's just cold, or something else to worry about. She's wrapped up in a blanket laying on me, and stopped shivering. Just wondering? |
My Gracie is very sensitive to the cold. She will seek out heat when ever it gets a little cooler. The floors are always chilly here in the winter and I think with her being so close to the floor when she walks that she gets cold easily. I got her a couple of sweater dresses last year and she is very comfortable in them. They are not tight on her fur or constricting at all.

I think some dogs are different than others as far as how well they maintain their body heat. |
I'm sure she's just cold. Sounds like when she warmed up with you, she is fine :) |
Shivering can be a sign of being cold, fearful, anxious, or in pain. If she started shivering when the temperature dropped, she is probably just cold -- and she stopped shivering when wrapped up in the blankie. :) |
Yes' it is a very cold day in Cali today. I have Waffles all bundled up and she is OK but was shivering this morning. |
If Columbo's hair is short when it gets chilly, I have to keep a sweater on him. He shivers if I don't. I also have to put a coat on him to do his business outside, especially in the morning. |
Yes, I think she is cold, too. Tatiana is sensitive to the cold, too. She's small (about 3 lbs). We have hard floors, and they do get cold during this time of year. Tatiana actually sneezes and coughs when she's chilly. I keep her in a sweater. Also, at night, I set-up a heated, pet bed for her. |

My 16 pounder gets very cold easily when it hits 50 outside she has to have a warm sweater on or she just shuts down and doesn't do well. Yorkies have hair not fur and no under coat so they get much colder then other dogs. |
