This is her blog entry:

My 4 year Yorkie is tilting her head and twisting

Posted in Uncategorized

My 4 year old Yorkie is tilting her head and can not walk or walks sideways in circles. At times she starts twisting with no control. During the twisting sessions when we hold her snug she also panting like she has been running. The Vet says maybe CVD but that she is a little young for it. She seemed to be getting a little better and the twisting went away for several days but now she seems so be getting worse again. Any ideas?

I tried to comment on her blog post but it said I didn't have enough characters. And I had at least two full sentences.

That's why I copied it here. I've never had any luck with blog comments!

I got the same thing. She needs to ask her vet for a referral to a specialist if he has no idea what is is.
Maybe someone should just PM her and tell her to post here?
