My dog has recently been showing signs of involuntary muscles spasms. Is this a result of an injury that I don't know about or a sign of something else? What should I do about it?
Does this happen when your dog is standing, laying down or both? It could be a sign of muscle weakness, due to age or injury. It could also be related to an issue with the nervous system not controlling muscle movement like it should. Regardless, it would be a good idea to see your vet about it. It'll be helpful to capture a video of it when it happens to show your vet, since sometimes dogs don't always display their symptoms the same way when they're at the vet, especially if they get really nervous or stressed when they go.
