Why is my dog shaking her head, stumbling, and acting stiff?

Question

What’s happening? Her Head is shaking back and forth, she can stand up but when she tries to walk she falls to the side or stumbles a little. she was stiff in my arms when I picked her up until I got her in bed and she relaxed and started to fall asleep. But she’s seeming better now, but still off. Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed Small (up to 22lb) | Female | unspayed | 1 year and 1 month old | 10 lbs

I'm sorry Luna doesn't feel good! It could be a neurological issue causing the head shaking and trouble walking. I do think she needs to see a vet for this problem, and I would take her into one first thing in the morning. Best of luck.
