Why is my dog not eating, acting wired, and shaking his head?

Poor King Meza! He does sound like he isn't feeling well at the moment, but his symptoms are a little general to pinpoint a specific illness. I'm wondering if you mean that his head is shaking when you say he can't keep it still. That would be involuntary head tremors, and could be caused by an injury, toxins, inflammation, hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), weakness, or pain. He might be lethargic as well. You have a couple of options in this case. You can take him into a vet right away for an exam to be safe, and I typically recommend doing that since I can't see the animal in person to say if they will be ok or not. In my opinion, it's always best to be safe and have an animal seen by a vet when there are concerns about their health. The other option is to monitor him for now. If his symptoms continue for the next couple of hours, they worsen, or he develops additional signs such as vomiting, anorexia, seizures, or any other concerning signs, I would take him into a vet right away.

It sounds as your pet is suffering from a gastrointestinal condition, possibly an infection. it could also be due to ingestion of a foreign body material. i would recommend taking him to the vet urgently, he will need to be checked first, if the vet thinks it's a simple gastrointestinal infection he will need an anti vomiting injection, antibiotics and a special food for a few days in order to get better. . if the vet thinks it is more serious he will need a blood test and possibly an ultrasound in order to find out what is wrong.

Poor Tigs! It definitely sounds like something is wrong. Unfortunately, these are very vague symptoms that could be caused by almost any kind of medical problem - shaking, acting lethargic, and not eating are generally signs of pain or discomfort, but beyond that he would need an exam and some diagnostic testing to determine what's wrong. I would recommend taking him to the vet today to be seen. He/she can do blood work, x-rays, or other testing if needed to help diagnose the problem.

I am sorry to hear about Baby. I would be concerned about things like a seizure disorder (they can sometimes act "out of it" prior to and after a seizure, and seizures can sometimes be mild and you may not notice them falling over and thrashing as you see in severe seizures), I would also worry about things like a liver shunt which can cause neurological signs. I would recommend bringing Baby in for an exam at the vet. They can do a neurological exam on him and may recommend bloodwork to check for underlying causes for his behavior.

All these signs are very concerning and point to a possible viral infection or metabolic disease. You need to take your dog to a veterinarian or PetER right away as he may be having a serious infection that needs to be tended to. Distemper comes to mind, a liver shunt and/or meningitis.

Poor Lucky! It does sound like he's feeling pretty uncomfortable or may be in some pain. It's good that you have a vet appointment scheduled for him already. I would keep an eye on him and make sure he has a place he can rest and relax without being bothered, along with access to food and water. If he shows any obvious signs of illness (vomiting, limping, unable to stand or go potty on his own, diarrhea, tender abdomen, specific pain, etc) or he worsens before your appointment, getting him into an ER vet sooner would be best.

Hello. I am very suspicious that there may be something going on with Lucky. A young Spitz should be full of energy & bouncing off the walls. I really believe that your vet needs to look a little more to see what might be going on. Was any blood work or a urinalysis performed at the last visit? Was any other testing offered such as for tick disease or any other diseases that might be common to your area? Lethargy & shivering are a true indication that Lucky does not feel well. I am sure with a little more work by your vet, we can get Lucky feeling better soon. Good luck & thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
