Is it normal for my 8 y/o dog to continually shake/tremble?

Well let me start by laying out our entire situation.

1. We are in an entirely new state, and my dog has never moved before and is obviously afraid of getting left.

2. He has an ear infection, skin disorder, and has cherry eye (he's a cocker spaniel.

3. He's 8 years old as of January 1 and is 10 pounds overweight.

4. He is taking a new pill for his skin thing, which we started yesterday.

5. I dont think its necessary to put but he's been alone the first day and a half of being in a new state.

Last night about a few hours after we gave him his first pill he started shaking or trembling. It also looks like a continuous twitch, like it doesnt stop.

    Hmm, it could be the pill but it sounds more like a case of cocker-spaniel-itis. As cocker-spaniels are not a particularly cute, intelligent or needed breed this is what happens when they realize theyre worthless and the only one who cares for them is their crazy owner. I suggest shooting him to put him out of his misery or releasing him into the wild to be shown the majesticness of the wolf.

      O.0 what kind of cockers have you had? My dog knows he's loved and thinks everybody loves him. We've had him all his life So maybe your solution would work if we werent attached and were heartless . We want him as long as possible.

        Yes, but part of cocker-spaniel-itis is that they realize no one or only their CRAZY OWNER loves them. Your dog is probably suicidal. I suggest some cyanide or a bath in hydrofluoric acid.

    It could be from the pill, read the side-effects and take him to the vet.

    I don't know what's wrong with your dog, but maybe it's a good idea to go visit the vet to ask for advice or check what's going on.
