Dog yawning and shivering
My puppy Apple (5mo dachshund female) has been doing something I find strange for about a week now. I only notice it when she is getting tired and relaxing. She yawns and then her bottom jaw shakes hard and her teeth chatter loudly. It is almost as if she is really cold or scared only she should be neither. She doesn’t look upset but it happens over and over until she lays her head down and falls asleep. Also, I don’t know if it is related but last night when I took her out to potty late , she was yelping when I lifted her up as if something was hurting her chest area and she was doing the jaw shaking thing at the same time. I put her back to bed and she slept fine. she seemed fine this morning. Is this something you have heard of before? is it normal or is something wrong?
