My dog is suddenly shaking, clingy, and sleepy. Is she ill or lazy?

Question

My dog is shaking and suddenly clingy and cuddly. She's always excited to go out but she hasn't gone out all day. This morning she's been really clingy and sleepy. Other than that there's nothing else and she has been getting her daily walks. Is she just cold or lazy today or is it something else? She usually isn't like this and is not at all clingy or cuddly.

If this is unusual behavior for your dog I would be concerned that there's something wrong. Shaking and lethargy can be indicative of pain, anxiety or that the pet just isn't feeling well. I would recommend that you take her to be seen by your regular veterinarian. A thorough examination will help determine what may be wrong and how to make her feel better
