I have a 13 year old jack Russell terrier and he is shaking and is in pain. Yelps when he moves and when you try to pick him up. He has had no other health conditions except a corn allergy.

Please get Spike assessed by a vet as soon as possibelt o investigate and treat the source of the pain. Spinal/disk disease, injury and infections such as tooth abscesses would all be frequent causes of extreme pain in older dogs and the sooner treated the best chance of them making a full recovery
