Puppy shaking, balance issues, weak legs. Vet if slowly improving?

Question

My yorkie puppy suddenly started shaking, having balance issues, running into things and his rear legs are weak. Still full of energy, and has a healthy appetite. There doesn't appear to be any trauma or injuries, and his ears don't appear to be infected. Should I take him to the vet if his condition seems to be improving slowly? Pet's info: Dog | Yorkshire Terrier | Male | unneutered | 4 months and 7 days old | 7 lbs

Hi there and thank you for using pet coach to address your concern. If Marley appears to be improving then I would continue to monitor him. If the symptoms do not resolve completely or they worsen then I would have Marley examined by a veterinarian so that the most appropriate Diagnostic and treatment recommendations can be made. It is possible that Marley ingested something that is causing these symptoms. I hope this helps guide you in the right direction. Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I'll be more than happy to help you further
