Is It a Seizure or What? Jack Russell Terrier Help?

I have an 11 year-old Jack Russell Terrier. She’s been healthy throughout her life but every once in a while these days she starts shaking uncontrollably for a few minutes. Each time we hold her and stroke her head till she stops shaking. She’s fine after about 5 minutes. She also gets scared lately when someone raises their voice even if we’re just speaking loudly. What could this be?

Im assuming this is and uncontrollable tremor where she looses control of her motor functions?
My Jack wil tremble but it is just a shiver…not a seizure.
You should get her evaluated by a vet to see if maybe some meds can limit this.

    I does sound like a seizure. The vet can give her medicine before they get much worse.

    Yeah that sounds like a seizure. My cat had this, it was really sad. It got worse over a couple weeks and she ended up going blind then we had to put her to sleep. it was epilepsy. I would take her to the vet as soon as you can.
