I've noticed that my chawawa has recently developed a twitch in her hips and hind legs when she is standing still. She seems to be ok otherwise. What could cause this?

It could be a muscle spasm caused by a sprain/strain, neurological disorder, etc. If it continues, have your vet take a look at her to determine if treatment is needed. She may need an anti-inflammatory to treat the problem.
