puppy shaking

My pup has started shaking alot recently,he was shaking the whole night in his sleep,hes always been a mover when he sleeps he barks growls moves his legs etc must be heavy dreaming always lol but hes shaking alot atm,just took him out a walk and nows hes back in and as hes falling asleep hes shaking again.

Sounds like a daft question, but what's the temperature like over there? If I remember right, this will be his first winter, won't it? It could be that the temperatures have dropped and he's feeling the cold.

Unless he has other symptoms, such as sneezing, vomiting, coughing, discharge from the nose/ears/eyes/mouth, limping, diarrhoea, etc., he's probably just cold.

If it gets worse, one thing you could try is waking him. If he's easily woken, it will almost definitely not be a seizure.

Of course, it could also be that he's dreaming.

Hi,

It was quite warm last night.

I did notice this morning that he has cream like discharge from his 'little man'

Could it even be muscle spasm to warm body to fight infection,il see in a day or so how he is

The discharge from his 'little man' (nice expression there! ) could be normal, as they do sometimes leak from down there!

In cases of infection, there would usually be other signs such as discomfort, lethargy, vomiting, etc., but it wouldn't hurt to keep an eye on him. If it persists and you're still concerned, you could phone your vet to see if they could put your mind at ease as well.

Aww poor brox, hope whatever it is gets sorted soon, maybe get him a jumper just in case I know Darcy really feels the cold.

update :

Hes still shaking, when hes walking or sitting down on the floor looking outside or something he doesnt really do it but when hes close to me or laying down/and or sleeping hes going into full body spasm.

Il ring the vet tomorrow,i have a feeling this is not good at all

please let us know how you get on.

If only to put your mind at rest, that would be the best plan. If necessary, ask the vet to take him in for the day under observation, so that they can see for themselves what happens when he's relaxing/sleeping.

Please try not to worry   and do let us know the outcome.

I hope the vets will put your mind at ease, do let us know how the little fella gets on Xx

Thanks everyone il keep you posted

I feel like crying

Aww big hugs from us can you not ring an emergency vet to put your mind a rest.

I know, I know how frightening it is when our fur babies are ill.

Not long to go now - you'll find out tomorrow. The waiting is the hardest part.

Stay strong - big   s to you

update : (before vet call)

As soon as we went to bed last night he stoped shaking and i woke up a few times just to find him sleeping,woke up about 6:30 and he had a mini shake for couple of secs and hasnt done it since so massive improvement.

He is crying abit this morning,something he does do in general sometimes,alot of times puppy wakes up (he sleeps in our bed always) then he gets restless sometimes because he must think because hes up we have to get up lol,i have left him on the bed now so he can try and get some more sleep. overall im much happier but still going to phone the vet to see what they think

Staffies can be a shaky dog if nervous or if they know they are being watched. Can i ask was he a reg health tested dog or not?

Yea for sure he was shaking for hours tho not just general shaking which he does say if me and mrs have a dissagrement, he wasnt tested no.

When hes yawning hes not opening his mouth fully noticed this since yesturday and today

Poor lad, do let us know asap what the vet says.
 from me and Vinnie xx
