| jaw quivering .. should i be worried?! hi all ... recently, kikko has done this weird jaw quiver or chatter thing ... he does it only every once in awhile, but everything else with him is normal - appetite, energy level, poopies, etc.. so should i be worried? the only recent changes have been changing his food from i/d to optima (he's been eating this and cheerios as treats for the last few days) and that i moved his x-pen to the bathroom - which i have cleared everything in there for him so there's nothing he could get to. today i will start him on i/d ... so i am at a lost, i don't know if i'm being overly concerned or not enough that this could be a sign of something ... any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. thanks! camly |

| Many boys will do that when they smell a girly in heat, or strange pee. Unfortunately, my doxie will do it when her teeth hurt. Might be worth giving them a look-see to make sure nothing is loose or sore. |

| My male Casper does it as well. He did it when he was terrified when we first took him home after I bought him, and since then, he only does it after he has been around my bitches pee or private parts ! That's him below ! Debra x x x x |

| aww debra! your boy is soo handsome! i've noticed that most have said that it happens to males when around females .... but we have only 2 boys, and both stay indoors all the time (kikko goes potty on a potty pad) so i don't know if its due to scents. i'm still confused. |

| They do it after cleaning their privates. Pretty sure all dogs do this.

| Layla is not large on cleaning herself.. lol... mommy has to do it... so i know that isn't her reason.. she'll just do it out of no where... maybe i'll start paying more attention to what she is doing before the teeth start |
