My dog is shaking, whining, and won't move; is his back leg hurt?

Question

My dog had sever shaking last night. And then all night he refused to move and was whining. Today the same is happening. And he won't come when I call him or look at me at all. It seems like his back leg is bothering him. But he can walk,eat, and drink water. I don't know what's wrong with him.

Shaking is usually a sign of pain, so it could be due to pain in his back leg or possibly due to a slipped disk. you will need to take Junior to the vet as he will surely need some pain killers at the very least.
