My dog's front legs shake! Please help!!!!
We have an old english sheep dog, she's 3 years old. She's always been very very lazy. It started about 2 years ago, her two front legs shake so much sometimes when she walks only 2 blocks. She can hardly walk 10 blocks without us having to stop and let her rest because she cannot walk (literally). Please advise as to what can be done, what could this be. Her vet performed tests on her 1 year ago and everything was fine, but the problem persists and seems to be getting worse. One more thing: she doesn't bark!!!!!!!!!!! She only barked twice in her lifetime, could this be the sign of a health problem? If anyone has any answers or suggestions, please e-mail Mariano and Susy at marianoandsusy@earthlink.net Many many thanks! |

| Has you vet done blood work and lyme disease check?
It could be arthritis caused by lyme disease. Lethargy is also a sign of lyme disease. Good Luck |
| When our OES was 9 months old this happenned to her. It turned out to be too much Calcium was in her diet.
I quit adding milk to her food and changed her to a lamb\rice kibble. Even to this day ANYTHING dairy, with eggs, onions, or garlic gives her diarrhea. It only took about a month to see the effects of too much calcium go away. Her legs became stronger with every day. Ours couldn't walk when I first began my search for the cause of her lameness. If there is no milk or dairy in yours diet, then maybe those glucasamine pills will help. My neighbor has great luck with those. Good luck. |
