Head Tremors Hi - It's Callista again, Did anyone know if Animax Ointment or Tavist Allergy medicine can give dogs the head/body tremors? I went over my medical history notes over & over again & realized that I started using Animax Ointment on Hannah's ears several days before her first...

Hi Kerri, I wish we knew what was causing Hannah's tremors & what to do to help her. My 10-year-old boxer Tootie-Girl has Boxer Cardiomyopathy & takes medication 3 times a day - total of 12 pills for it. We take her to our family vet & the Cardiologist in Maryland every 3 to 6 months for an...

Boxer Cardiomyopathy Hello all, My sweet 10-year-old baby boxer Tootie was diagnosed with Boxer Cardiomyopathy in June 2003. I just want to let everyone know that with the proper medications, checkups, EKG's, etc. she's still with us & doing fine. We know that she's on borrowed time &...

Her tremors always happen during the night when she's sleeping. She wakes up - she starts to shake her head then her body starts to quiver - sometimes she bounces up & down on her hind legs - then she sits & gently falls over. She's alert the entire time - her eyes are glassy though. She...

Thanks! We need all the 'healing vibes' we can get.

My 2 1/2 year old female boxer is experiencing head tremors in the middle of the night. We took her to our local emergency clinic & they sent us to a neurologist this week. She passed the physical part of the examination & now we have to decide whether we should do an MRI & spinal tap. We...
