Head shaking

[Lila]

My bulldog has been shaking head happened for around 20mins this morning and i seen him do this earlier in the week.

It's like he cant control him self and he looks really dopey when doing it.

I tried to video it but this damn phone wouldnt work.

Im really concerned as when he was a baby he had fits (not bd and only around 3 but it was nothing like this.

Anyone have an idea what it could be? Im going up the vets for a chat soon see if they have any idea's

Probably something in his ear.

I was thinking exactly that. After looking down his ear t did look dirty so iv just cleaned it out (only top part wont go down far) and ill see how he goes.

Thanks

Chloe does this when she's got an ear infection coming on, but it can also be a sign of something stuck.

Doesnt sound like a fit so I wouldnt worry =] xxx

I would pop him to the vets or even give them a ring to be on the safe side. Grass seeds etc can get very deep in the ear and cause lots of problems.
Don't poke around too much down there as it can make the problem worse and force any intrusive object deeper (trust me, I know!!!)
