Why do my dog's front legs shake when sitting but he walks normally?

My dog’s front legs always shaking when he is sitting. But he can run or walk normally. What’s wrong with that, do I need to give him some vitamins? Or there are some issues on his bone?

It could be Simba is having a bit of pain when he's sitting Without seeing him in person, I can't say for certain. He does not need vitamins, his puppy food will provide all the vitamins he needs. I'd have him seen by a vet to have this shaking diagnosed and treated. Best of luck.
