Neurodegenerative disorder If your dog has this I am very sorry as it is incurable at this time. There are medications that will help control the symptoms some what.
Friends,
My vet said he attended a symposium on this issue. My dog is an australian shepherd mix and has shaking of the head for about 30 seconds to one minute every few months or so. My vet said that a number of dogs went through veterinary analysis and they were not able to find anything wrong (including MRI's, blood work, cat scan) with any of the dogs. He suggested these possibilities: Scar tissue on the brain from a trauma, tumor in the brain. So far my dog is 8 and healthy. I believe she is having the tremors after she eats vegetation (grass in our yard) possibly containing chemicals. I see a strong correlation between the two, but am not sure.
