Whats wrong with my girl? (non-GSD)HELP!

Ilovemypuppies · 01-10-2012, 07:02 PM

My little girl Gretchen just started shanking, and I though she was cold but then i felt her nose and it was warm and dry. Then I thought she had a fever but she seems like she is hot because she is panting. She has had one seizer last year but it wasn't very serious. please help me she is shaking worse and wont let me stop petting her, so sorry for the bad grammar and punctuation i am typing with one hand.

Can you call your vet or go to a e-vet service?

She is acting a lot better now... she is still panting but she is playing with the other dogs like she is fine. (she hardly ever plays) I am going to wait a little longer before the vet. I was just unsure of what was going on because of her past seizer.

If it happens again, if your phone has video, video it. You can also just give the vet a call and see what to look for.

She could have a back injury. Shaking is a pain response.

She is fine now:-) Gretchen has gone through her share of health issues in her short life:-( we bought her from a family that didn't have the money to take care of her anymore. Her last owners lied to us about her. They said she just went to the vet and was fine but we knew she wasn't and so we took her. When we got home she drank tons of water and come to find out she had TERRIBLE worms, and fleas. And in the last 2 years she had had something in her foot break(don't know what it was) so she constantly limps now, but it doesn't seem to bother her to much. (I don't think I can do anything about it though) She also had a seizer last year. And her last injury was a pulled something in her back leg. We had to keep her in the kitchen all the time because if she kept running on it then she would have ripped it. So I get a little nervous every time she seems to be feeling bad because I don't know whats going to happen. Thanks for your help.
