Bogangles Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 My dog, a 5 year old female, sometimes has like a vibration in her head. It is not chattering or shaking. I read somewhere that a human experienced this when hungry. I actually checked her after feeding her this evening and she is fine now. Sometimes she does not eat her meal in the morning but I leave cookies and other treats for her during the day. Has anyone experienced this. Thank you.

FiveRoooooers Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Could she be having idiopathic head tremors? Quote Old Dogs are the Best Dogs. Thank you, campers. Current enrollees: Punkin.

Bogangles Posted March 7, 2017 Author Share Posted March 7, 2017 Thank you for your response. I do not think this is what it is. It is not obvious until stroking her head and feel a vibration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hubcitypam Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 (edited) GME maybe?. That is what I lost Rex to, This might not be the best site...but research. http://healthypets.mercola.com/sites/healthypets/archive/2014/08/03/granulomatous-meningoencephalitis.aspx Edited March 7, 2017 by Hubcitypam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bogangles Posted March 7, 2017 Author Share Posted March 7, 2017 Thank you, Hubcitypam. I don't believe she is showing symptoms for GME, at least not yet. She has been here about 18 months and has come a long way to being a very happy dog. She had a form of colitis which took quite a while to get her guts straight -- I think we are 90% there. Anyway, will wait and keep an eye on her. So sorry about Rex and all your angels. It is so difficult watching them go through these conditions.

Jerilyn Posted March 7, 2017 Share Posted March 7, 2017 Does it only happen when you pet her? Is she happy when you feel it? I ask because my Lila kind of purrs when we are having a good snuggle. It's like a real deep, silent whine and it's definitely a good thing. Quote Jerilyn, missing Lila (Good Looking), new Mistress to Wiki (PJ Wicked).

Bogangles Posted March 11, 2017 Author Share Posted March 11, 2017 Thanks, Jerilyn. I think she does actually do what you are describing when being stroked even heard her purring. But I think this is different as in pain or fear. More likely it might be pain going from experience with my previous greyhound. Hoping her teeth are not going to be a problem and brushing does not seem to have a great effect. Thanks for your reply. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
