My dog has started shaking his head and walking backwards, his back legs seem stiff and he seems in a world of his own, hes shivering aswell. It has only just started today, I dont know wether to take him the vets straight away or see what he is like tomorrow

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! It sounds like Hooch is having neurologic issues. This is quite concerning. I would go ahead and have him evaluated at this time to see more in detail what he may have and see what the treatment would be like. I am hoping for the best!
