The full-body shake dogs do to dry off when they’re wet, but he’s not wet, he’s just doing it all the time. Other than being a little annoying hearing the sound all the time, I want to make sure it’s not a sign of anything bad. He’ll do it a few times right after waking up from a nap which I figure is maybe just him waking himself up like getting a good stretch after a nap, but he’ll also do it randomly through the day a lot. I was visiting family and their dogs for thanksgiving and noticed he does it a lot more than the other dogs that were there. Seems like he’s been doing it more in the last month or so but it’s possible I’ve just started noticing it more. Been kind of stressed recently and have admittedly been more easily annoyed and noticing every little noise. He just went to the groomer last weekend so I don’t think it’s a matter of him being dirty, no fleas, etc. Anyone else’s dog do this a ton? Is it something I should be worried about? I feel like I call or visit my vet about every little thing, so I don’t want to bother with this if it’s completely normal.
