shaking all over...is he just cold?!

[stephaneew]

So, I have waited a few days before posting because it just didnt seem too serious. Now that it has continued I am getting nervous.
Anyways, I have a 14 month old boxer boy, and we just got a puppy in december. About a week ago I noticed his shivering. Like he was cold. They are not very noticable, and I really can only tell when he lying down, and/or sleeping. But the fact that I live in Ca and our home is not even close to being cold, and that it has gone on for more than just a few days has really got me nervous. Has any one experienced this?!? And is it a symptom for more to come?
I thought that one explantion could be he figured out a way to get attention to him away from the puppy>? But that makes me feel horrible for even thinking that he is faking..
Help!!??

One of our boxers growing up started shaking all the time. I think it turned out that she was having seizures, and she was on meds for a while, if not her whole life I want to say. I wasn't around for the last 4 years of her life though, so I forget what her everyday care entailed...

We live in Western New York and it is 5 degrees out right now as I am typing this and Justice doesn't even shake like that when we go outside to go to the bathroom. Maybe a trip to the vet is in order especially if it is daily. Good luck and keep us posted.

This happend to our 2 year boy a few weeks ago. He had trembling episodes like he was cold, but there was no way he was cold. We took him to the vet and were told that trembling either means they are cold or in pain. We kind of felt silly taking him to the vet for trembling but we ended up finding out the cause of the pain and getting him medication to help.

Please make an appt with your vet. Shivering like they are cold is a sign of addisons disease. I hope that's not it but it is definitely worth getting checked out.
