Default chihuahua puppy shaking

Check with the vet.

Do you know what the shot was for? If it was a vaccination against some sort of
doggie flu, your pup might be getting some symptoms of fever, but still check
with the vet.

Chihuahuas are subject to hypoglycemia which can be quite seriuos. Since
it is not possible to tell whether that is the cause of the shaking you
need to consult a vet tonight.

Please explain what information you used to decide that the
problem is not something important, like hypoglycemia
(which can kill the dog).


Everybody else gave medical advice.


Nobody else gave a diagnosis.

Hiccups IS very common
with young puppies, and trembling IS very common with
chihuahuas.

Are you saying this isn't true?


It may be true.

Hi,

I'm a chi owner, and they do tremble when they're nervous or cold. They're
extremely sensitive to the cold. So, is your pup wrapped warm and snug in
bed? Mine likes to burrow right under the blanket in his little bed.
