dog with tremors at rest
our dog (4yo female neutered Mini Schnauzer) has started having tremors or spasms that only seem to happen when she is resting. they can go on itermittantly for 10-15mins. her regular vet examined her but did not do blood work. he said that some dogs just have tremors and the testing would be painful and invasive to really determine the cause. otherwise she is perfectly healthy and gets a fair amount of exercise. what are your feelings on this and do you have any idea what might cause these tremors? |

Dog afraid of thunder
Our 8yo English Setter (female neutered) in the past 2 years has developed a fear of thunder. She will try to dig the carpet, trembles violently and will jump on our laps to be comforted. Our male Setter doesn't mind the thunder a bit. I don't like the idea of using sedatives for her. Do you have any solutions? - Click
