Anxiety Attacks?

[Troodie's Mom]

Troodie has been having episodes of shivering and trembling and she chatters her teeth and gets very clingy during them. I took her to the vet yesterday who said it is not Epilepsy, but most likely anxiety attacks. I have no idea what would trigger them, she leads a charmed life, and I'm worried about this. Anyone ever have a dog that does this? Any info would be helpful. Thanks!

Chopper has done that, his lips quiver when he gets nervous, like last week when Gypsy ran and knocked the chair over and broke it, there was such a loud noise he was quivering and shaking like a seizure and drooling.. it was weird

Does he look to you for comforting when he gets scared? I'm wondering if I'm babying my dog too much.

Troodie Update:

I think the trigger to her attacks is the sound my son's cellphone makes when the battery is dying. She had one today and I noticed that his phone was making that 'beewoop" sound. She didn't like it at all!
