    Why is my dogs head twitching?
    Hi, my dogs head keeps twitching? I know it sounds daft, but a bit like when someone has Parkinson's disease?

    I don't know what you mean by twitching. Could it be an ear infection as opposed to something neurological?

    IS this when his eyes are closed and he is resting, or is he shaking his head to scratch his ears or what? Try to describe what he is doing when this "twitching" starts happening, what is going on around you guys, how long it lasts, is he responsive when he does this? Give as much detail as possible please. There's not much to go on here. Also woiuld help to know a bit about the dogs history (rescue, pet store, from a breeder etc... ).

    Yes - both dogs need to see a Vet.

    Nikki, this thread (question) is from 2011. It's doubtful that the OP (original poster) will see your post. Also, your post wasn't an answer to the question. It seems to be a statement.

    Are you concerned about your dog? Do you have a question? If so, it's best to start your own thread. The only people that will see this one, since it's so old, are the people that already posted on it. Also, you didn't really give enough info for anyone to give you any advice.
