Description

In this episode of Radio Trupanion, veterinary neurologist Dr. Carrie Jurney, DVM, DACVIM (Neurology), joins us to unpack the many reasons our pets may shake, shiver, tremble, or tremor. Together we explore the wide spectrum of causes – from common, harmless behaviors like excitement and cold, to more serious medical concerns like anxiety, pain, toxicity, or neurological conditions. Dr. Jurney offers practical tips for pet parents to distinguish between benign and concerning shaking behaviors, recognize emergency warning signs, and track symptoms for their veterinarian so that our pets can stay safe, comfortable, and healthy.
