Why does my dog shiver all the time?
My dog seems to always be shivering. Could she really just be cold? Or is she scared of something? Should I be concerned? What is the shivering a sign of?

Dogs shake and tremble for all kinds of reasons -- excitement, pain, old age, even nausea. Shivering and trembling may be symptoms of something serious -- like poisoning, kidney disease, or injury. So, if your dog suddenly starts trembling or shivering, it's important to take note of other symptoms such as diarrhea, vomiting, or limping. Then talk to your vet right away.
