Shaking leg

Has anyone ever had an OES or any other dog for that matter that his leg (front) will shake. It is not bad and not all the time. It is either leg as well. Obe does this and it does not seem to bother him. Almost seems like he controls it as he can make it stop. He can be sitting or laying down and one of his fronts legs may or may not start to shake slightly. Hope I explained this so it is easy to understand. Just wondering as I have never seen it before. Also this has happened for months now. Could it just be nerves, kind of what it looks like.

our boy Spencer always did this (shaking leg) when he was excited, or nervous....I looked it up on this forum once and there are a couple of old threads discussing it. You might want to read through and make sure that there isn't something worrisome in it. With Spence though, we always just looked on it as one of his charming quirks! :wink:
Hi,

Sorry to hear about Obe. I'd advise doing the same thing..look at the top of your screen , right and side and hit search with the topic legs shaking under Medical. There have been several post regarding this in the past.

Good luck to you and belly rubs to Obe.

Thanks for the info and i searched the topic and found that most of the post deal with back legs. His back legs never shake it is always his front. Will ask the vet next time.
Hi Shon,

Sorry you didn't find what you were looking for and was able to transcribe my typonese. :oops:

I'm hoping you find what's causing this and perhaps share it with us.

Hi Marianne I did go back and search front leg shake and some post said it is common among puppies others thought it was from being excited. It does not seem to bother him at all nor do he seem to be in any pain. It has gone on since I got him at 9 weeks. He seem like he has total control of it. Just like when we sit and tap our foot. It is not a constant thing nor does it happen a lot. Like I said will ask the vet and see what he has to say and the post it for others. Thanks again.
