My dog hit her head and is shaking, timid, not herself. What to do?

Question

I had accidentally hit my dog in the head with the door when letting her inside. She's been very timid, shaking non stop and not acting herself. What do I do? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Small (up to 22lb) | Female | unspayed | 7 years old | 20 lbs

If the signs persist more than 12 hours a check up would be needed both to have her checked and give appropriate treatment. Pain relief meds may be necessary. In the meantime keep her quiet and monitor her for any other sign other than what you described (which are probably to due to mild discomfort and not specific of anything concerning).
