My little chihuahua shakes?
I was recently given a young male chihuahua. He was apparently a stray and is very thin. All of his bones can be seen, He is a good eater, very energetic and gets along great with my much larger cat. He will be going to the vet soon to see if he has worms or a medical condition that is causing him to not gain weight. My question is that he shakes a lot. Not the nervous, cold shivering, but like he's trying to shake something off of himself, like water. He's clean and has no fleas, does anyone have any ideas on why he constantly shakes like this? I've not seen this before.

Maybe it's a type of doggy OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder)
I'm not a vet, so I could be wrong. Be sure to ask your vet about it.

hie... i am not an expert but i guess he could be allergic to some food and feels scratchy. the vet may be able to tell. good luck.
btw have you given him a bath recently with a moisturizing shampoo as his skin may be feeling very dry in the cold weather.
