The tremors were only short in duration, however (@ 5 minutes). The first time it happened I brought him to the vet and the vet told me not to worry. He said this was common in small white dogs and he assured me that the dog wasn't about to have a heart attack. As for the reason the dog gets the tremors the only thing I could think of was that there might have been some female dog in heat nearby. He has also gotten tremors on long car rides. Thinking back, I really haven't noticed the tremors for over a year. Peter Meng
