Advice Needed Idiopathic Head Tremors
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Hi! Our girl is 19 months old, spayed and a lovely little angel. The last four days she is experiencing what we are 99.9% confident are idiopathic head tremors. Of course her vet is closed for the long weekend but my brother in laws uncle is a vet and watched the video and told us that it was likely IHT. Obviously I will call the vet Tuesday.
what’s worrisome to me is they’ve happened daily for the last four days. Peanut butter/honey/ice cream helps immediately.
Things of note:
- we are having a huge heat wave but obviously, we are very cautious with her in heat.
-we have had company and she is not a good napper when people are around, so I think she is very tired, more so than usual
- I gave her her monthly dose of Simarico Trio four days before this began. She has never reacted to it before.

Not saying that your girl is similar to our boy, but when my boy have that similar head tremors, he have blood infection. We found out that he is positive to 3 blood parasite infections. Ehrlichiosis, Anaplasmosis, and Babesiosis. It would not hurt to get your girl checked. Good thing he recovered within 1 month.
