tra708 Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 Twice this last week, i've noticed Lola's head shaking back and forth. She'll be lying there quietly, but awake, and her head starts moving and i don't think she can stop it. It lasts a couple of minutes, then stops. Do you think this could be a mild seizure? She recently had de-worming meds and frontline. The rest of her body doesn't move at all, just her head. Anyone had this happen with your dog?? I'll obviously see the vet if it continues. thanks! tracy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Greytluv Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 Lola I know some dogs on here have head tremors. I'm sure they will answer your questions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest barkdogs Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 could be a petit mal seizure. My aussie Odo has those once in a while. My guess is that no treatment is necessary but you might want to keep a log just in case they progress to something more dramatic. And of course, ask your vet!
