Dog Head Shaking - Idiopathic Head Tremors

Idiopathic head tremors are a series of horizontal “no,” vertical “yes,” or rotational “bobblehead” gestures.
- Only occur in the head
- Happen while the dog is at rest
- Generally last less than five minutes
- Do not seem to upset the dog
- Can often be stopped by distracting the dog
Idiopathic head tremors can happen to any dog but are most often seen in young dogs under three years old and in certain breeds like:
- Dobermans
- Bulldogs
- French Bulldogs
