My dachshund is having spasms/twitches on her chest?

I have a 5 year old mini dachshund who just yesterday started having weird spasms on her chest. They can be seen and felt and look like strong, continuous muscle spasms. They’ve been lasting around 30-40 minutes and happen a few times a day. She acts like she’s sick when they happen and can’t seem to get comfortable, so I’m assuming they’re painful. I took her to the vet last night but he didn’t know what was wrong and just gave me some pain pills to give her. Does anyone have any idea what this is?

  • What dimension is he? By way of his face he looks somewhat like a standard. My longhair Dachsie is a regular, and most persons are stunned by using how significant they’re in evaluation to the minis. Despite the fact that my dog is a conformation champion, I get requested at all times out in public what he’s combined with, lol. Longhair requisites in the usa are usually greater than those within the relaxation of the world. My possess boy is 25 lbs., but I noticed one who was once genuinely 40 lbs! More commonly they keep around 25-30. The FCI ordinary circumference for chest size is 35 cm, but again i might anticipate the requirements in the usa to ordinary bigger than that. Anyway there may be more commonly nothing incorrect. If he appears healthful and the vet has by no means mentioned some thing, i am definite it is just that is conformation is not rather used to what you’ve gotten obvious in different (smaller) Dachsies.
