Dog twitching whole body when lying down: Is it a seizure?

Question

My dog has a twitching problem where she will lay down and twitch her whole body for a few minutes then stop, do you know of what could be causing this? Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Female | spayed | 3 years and 4 months old | 6 lbs

Dr. Strydom, DVM · Accepted Answer

It could be a type of seizure activity. The other possibility would be a muscle problem. I suggest you video her doing this and then show it to your vet. They will be able to help you better after seeing it.
