Not sure what is wrong with Stewie. He keeps shaking like he is trying to dry himself off after a bath, only hes not wet. I took off his colar, but it hasn't helped. He is also crying...I don't know what to do!!!

Have you checked his ears?

To me he is acting like something is hurting him... Look all over in his coat for a spider bite or bee sting...Or anything poking his skin. If nothing is found in his coat, and he is still hurting, please take him to the Vet.

What should I look for in his ears? I'll check over his coat now....

Is anything in his ears? Crud? Red skin? I would prod him and move his limbs and see if he reacts to anything. Make sure the check his pads of his feet and in between to make sure nothing is lodged in there.

Everyone has given good advice - with his ears also check for an odor. Have you checked his teeth and gums - look for redness of the gums and also an odor. Also try giving him a gently body massage in a quite room. I would call your vet and have him checked over. Let us know how your little one is doing.
