poodle proud Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 Hi, I have noticed Osca shivering when he is sleeping, his whole upper body trembles. It seems to start as soon as he falls asleep. If I wake him it seems to stop. I have put his jumper and other things on him in case he was cold. I read elsewhere on the net that this can be normal during sleep, can occur in small breeds and partiularly in the swf's. Does anyone have info about this?

PandaGirl Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 My Border Collie X shivers and gets full muscle spasms when she's asleep, sometimes it's so freaky I have to wake her up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poodle proud Posted September 1, 2009 Author Share Posted September 1, 2009 Dreaming?? I didn't think so. Ive seen him dream. This was sort of constant shaking that started as soon as he closed his eyes. I wouldnt have thought he would dream that quickly. He seems ok now so who knows? Thanks Persephone and PandaGirl.

Kirislin Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 Does he continue to shiver if you cover him with a blanket? My whippets would freeze if they weren't covered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poodle proud Posted September 2, 2009 Author Share Posted September 2, 2009 Does he continue to shiver if you cover him with a blanket? My whippets would freeze if they weren't covered. He stopped about 10 minutes later after I buried him in blankets. So it could just be that he was cold which would be so fine with me. I dont need drama It was a bit colder yesterday. I think I just got a bit scared. He has had a couple of seizures this year and even though they were an adverse effect from a medication I still get paranoid when he does things out of the ordinary.
