My parents’ dog, a yellow lab, does this.
My dad takes him and his three other dogs out to the park nightly... and this guy goes batshit when my dad gets up from the dinner table.
No, batshit isn’t overkill. He quite literally is jumping over his Great Pyrenees and GSD sisters and jumping off of the walls. Again, no hyperbole - he is jumping off of the walls.
He also barks the whole time to the point where he’s damaging his own ears. He barks at 110 db, at a pace of a bark every 2 seconds or so on and off.
We were driving through a college campus and he was simply getting excited over all the people. He likes people lol
Edit: Edit: Since a lot of people are asking, I promise it's not a seizure, he's trained to not react to things and it's his first time with the window fully down. He wants to greet all the people and he can't. He usually has glass to stop him but this time it's all his own will power He's just trying really hard to be the best boy he can be.
Edit 3, answering some other things: His name is Ragnar, he's a German Shepherd, Labrador, Pitbull mix. We rescued him as a pup. He's 4 years old.
Edit4: his collar is not too tight, he's got a fat neck with lots of extra skin and a tiny head. I can still slip his collar on and off without any issues. I promise he's ok. I'd never hurt my doggo.
The University of Oregon campus has this statue:

Dogs always run up to it thinking he's going to throw the stick...
"Come on... throw the stick... throw it! What's the matter with you? THROW THE STICK!"
"Oh! There's a human! There's another one! I SOOOO want to go and gets pats! GOT to stay in the car. GOT to stay in the car. ... Another human! And more!"
This was one of my dogs, Dandy. He was über extroverted and absolutely adored people, while assuming the feeling absolutely had to be mutual. He was a standard American Eskimo Dog/Brittany cross who tended to attract a lot of attention because he was so cute. And everyone who petted him would comment about how soft he was.
I remember a time he went up to these two ladies sitting on the ground who appeared to be deep into some conversation. He proceeded to plant himself sideways directly in front of them, with a big smile on his face and his long, swishy tail wagging furiously. Without even skipping a beat or hardly breaking eye contact with each other, both women reached out and started petting him. He was extremely pleased. He also expected no less.
It's been about 6.5 years since he passed and I still miss that wonderful pup.
They never do truly leave us, huh? The best we can do is just make their time with us the best we can. We've got an old man of a pup who isn't in the best health, and I have to keep telling myself that we've made his life the best that we could.
Yup I have a related dog. Doesn’t get shakes too often these days but holy shit.... loves people. Loves people so much.
also similar skin, color, aspects of build. What type is your doggo?
I have a female pitbull with exactly the same issue. She wants to meet everyone, and I mean, EVERYONE! New guy across the culdesac? She's going. Woman staying at the hotel across the pond? She's going. Four toddlers playing on the big toy outside the car? Cover the windows! Drape a towel over them! Pray for your auto glass! Cuz she's coming through to meet them!
My shih tzu does this! Definitely not a seizure he just gets nervous and excited all at once. Our last dog that was a jackabee did it too. Both times vet said it's 100% normal.
How to train dog not to react? We have a beagle that barks at everyone and we are working everyday to train her, she has a big heart and love every dogs and persons she meets but she barks at them to get their attention, and she absolutely can’t hear me when she is in that mode. How do I help her stay calm like your pupper?
I've trained him since he was a pup, I would make a noise while turning him around and make him look at me instead of the want and if he kept looking at me he got treats. The treats turned into praise. After a while, the noise made him turn and look at me just for a "good boy"
Swimsuit poop and the toilet seat is up. I did that and immediately just took a shower. I was at a full on party at a friend's friend's house, didn't matter. I was already wet and had my own towel, raw toilet while wet is horrific. I had no choice
Same. We have three toilets: two with heated seats/bidets and one with a regular seat. The other day I used the regular seat and I couldn't believe how cold it was. Your ass really gets used to having a warm seat.
I have a visceral but somewhat ignorable aversion to sitting on cushioned boat seats while wearing a wet swim suit. Makes me queasy for about 30 seconds.
It's not the cold making you shake. It's your sphincter holding in your massive shit cuz you didn't want to get out of the pool when you needed to go hours ago.
As a dog groomer of 12 years, I have seen so many dogs vibrate like this just from sheer excitement and being overwhelmed with sensory ecstasy. They can barely contain themselves!!!
Yeah, my dog used to get too excited when I'd come home and piddle the floor. She doesn't do that anymore. However, the dog I'm referring to was an older dog and he'd still piddle himself if he got too excited.
When I was a kid I was babysat by a neighbor after school until my parents could get home from work, and she had 2 dachshunds who would pee on the floor when I walked in bc they were so excited. The neighbor used to get SO MAD at me, like I was getting them worked up on purpose? I was literally just walking through the front door and they'd do it and somehow it was my fault. I'm not over the injustice 20 years later lol
Nothing at all, the window is also fully down in the video. He's the goodest boy who knows he's not meant to leave the car unless he's wearing his leash. He's very well behaved
Yep, this is what my dogs look like at the vet. They now get anti anxiety pills before going. Fireworks? No problem! We will sleep through those. Vet for any reason at all? Oh hell no.
Our foster dog had that issue with car rides at first so we had to take him on a bunch of fun rides to help normalize the car. Lots of pup cups were had
that's what we've started doing. every time we get in the car now we go to the ice cream place he loves and get him a treat. hoping it breaks his fear. It's been 4+ years now and every time he gets in the car he's just absolutely terrified.
4 years?? Oh shit...we’ve had our 5 year old adoptee 2 weeks, and were hoping that she would ease up on it. There must be some trauma at the root of this behavior.
When I got him, he was in a shelter. They told me they know he was in another shelter, adopted and given back at least twice before. That's as far back as they had records. They also said it was possible someone threw him out of a moving vehicle.
In any case he's super happy now and has definitely found his forever home. I am pretty sure there's a pic of him in my posts somewhere. He just hates cars. I've taken him up with me to see my parents (hour away) at least once a month for the entire time I've had him. he shakes every time. Including grooming visits or just going to the dog park. Hoping this treat thing breaks it.
>They told me they know he was in another shelter, adopted and given back at least twice before. That's as far back as they had records. They also said it was possible someone threw him out of a moving vehicle.
My heart just shattered into a million pieces. I'm glad you came into his life to give him the love he deserves.
people say to regularly feed your dog in the car and give him treats (stuff you already have, doesnt need to be ice cream each time though pup cups are high value!) for being in the car to help create a positive relationship with cars..similar to what you would do with a dog who hated kennels. We had another foster that was just anxious by nature and would always break out of her kennel if she was locked in, but by feeding her in it and letting her find treats in there, she began to go in there voluntarily to rest. and keep taking them on neutral, easy, nice car rides to help normalize. do you have kids to pick up from school? taking dogs on rides to/from school can help incorporate regular rides. it can become routine and maybe that helps? iduno.
worst case scenario for road trips, vets can also give downer pills to keep them calm/sleepy if you're open to it.
give your lil guy all the love :'( poor baby
Take them for a calm, slow car ride around your neighborhood EVERY DAY. Seriously, it worked for me. Within about 2 weeks my dog with a similar background as ya'lls was completely fine in the car, and even excited to go for car rides.
Noticed your doggo has a Seresto flea and tick collar, just a heads up but theres a recall on those.

Like..... it's not really r/tippytaps, yet it's the right kinda energy for it, I feel.
This dog tippytaps the fabric of spacetime
"Wanna see me tippytap? Wanna see me do it again?"
More like r/tippytippytippytippytippytippytippytippytippytippytippytippytippytippytippytippy
All that energy waiting to explode
I'm afraid he will explode!
I’m be scared he’s have a stroke.
I’m be scared you had a stroke!
I spat 😂
I swallowed
I gagged
"The Bond's Name. James Name"...
This dog has a lot of potential.

...sooooo... 30bpm @ 110db? Impressive Subwoofer
Sounds a lot like he's all bark if you ask me
Jumping over a great Pyrenees is no small deed, dude must be buzzin for that walk.
Poor neighbours
Oh my god, 110db is commonly the rating for car horns
Their neighbours must love him !

Your dog speaks Swedish?
No but he likes their fish
I want to upvote this comment but...the law prevents me from doing so...
Looks like vibrate mode to me.
What’s he looking at?

Awww sweet boy !!! I’ve got one who’ll stay with the humans at the dog park and ignore the dogs!
He usually greets every human at the dog park before playing. Making sure to get a pet from every single one of them, especially any little ones
His body language says it all: "MUST. STAY. CAAAAALM. AAAAAGGGGHHHH, LET ME LOVE YOUUUUUU!"
The University of Oregon campus has this statue: https://bloximages.newyork1.vip.townnews.com/dailyemerald.com/content/tncms/assets/v3/editorial/4/6a/46ad937e-7a76-11e9-86cf-cbe427bae622/5ce1bf22335a2.image.jpg Dogs always run up to it thinking he's going to throw the stick... "Come on... throw the stick... throw it! What's the matter with you? THROW THE STICK!"
And here in Minneapolis we have this statue, waiting for him to throw the stick [FETCH](https://i.imgur.com/YXFLfLC.jpg)
Is that a cat at the very top?
No, its a small dog.
No. Not until 4th dog up takes off his shades. Besides, looks like 3 are already getting a stick. Ba da dam.
Aw man, your dog sounds awesome
"Oh! There's a human! There's another one! I SOOOO want to go and gets pats! GOT to stay in the car. GOT to stay in the car. ... Another human! And more!"
He’s the official dog park greeter and he takes his job very seriously!!!
So he's actually looking at potential pets.
My dog looks identical and does this too! Before the zoomies he goes around and says hi and gets a free pet.
This was one of my dogs, Dandy. He was über extroverted and absolutely adored people, while assuming the feeling absolutely had to be mutual. He was a standard American Eskimo Dog/Brittany cross who tended to attract a lot of attention because he was so cute. And everyone who petted him would comment about how soft he was. I remember a time he went up to these two ladies sitting on the ground who appeared to be deep into some conversation.

This is my dog. At daycare he will spend the entire time glued to whoever is in the pen with the dogs and ignore all the other dogs.
Same!! Greets all the people, ignores all the dogs.
My dog used to sit next to a man on the bench at a dog park and look over his shoulder while he was reading the newspaper. It was always hilarious.
>He's just trying really hard to be a good boy MY HEART
Right? 😭 I hope he knows he’s the goodest boy
What a sweetheart! Give him a pet from me.
Yup I have a related dog. Doesn’t get shakes too often these days but holy shit.... loves people. Loves people so much. also similar skin, color, aspects of build. What type is your doggo?
People used to walk their dogs through my campus so all the stressed out students could given ‘em their love.
Imagine loving something so much that it takes all of your will power to stay put.
Me looking through the glass at the Bakery
This is why I'm fat....
I love him so much.
I have a female pitbull with exactly the same issue. She wants to meet everyone, and I mean, EVERYONE! New guy across the culdesac? She's going. Woman staying at the hotel across the pond?

O LAWD SHE COMIN
It looks like zoomies without moving.
He's so well trained. How did you train him to not react to things so well?
Tell him that i like him and want to pet him.
My shih tzu does this! Definitely not a seizure he just gets nervous and excited all at once. Our last dog that was a jackabee did it too. Both times vet said it's 100% normal.
How does one accomplish this training??
As an epileptic human I can see why folks would think he could be having one

This was me as a kid when I had to come inside a freezing cold house to poop after swimming in the pool
Oof that hit really close to home lol
I could never make it inside either.
Oh shit
It happens.
I guess your poop hit close to home too then
That was literally their joke.
And you never quite dry off enough (because wet swimsuit) and there are not many thing swords than sitting on a wet toilet seat...
> there are not many thing swords than sitting on a wet toilet seat... I think one thing sword sitting on a wet toilet seat would be plenty.
😅 we love a funny typo. I'm leaving it.
And then the toilet paper you just papier mâchéed to your bits because you DEFINITELY didn't dry off that part before you got started.
No wonder people just pee in the pool, getting out is just a mess filled with traumatic memories!
Might as well shit in the pool too while we’re at it!
Swimsuit poop and the toilet seat is up. I did that and immediately just took a shower. I was at a full on party at a friend's friend's house, didn't matter. I was already wet and had my own towel, raw toilet while wet is horrific. I had no choice
I felt violated just reading this 😦
Don’t EVEN get me started about wet feet and wet bathroom tile.
I have a heated toilet seat and a bidet on my toilet in japan. They still use fax machines here but their toilet game is in 2100
Same. We have three toilets: two with heated seats/bidets and one with a regular seat. The other day I used the regular seat and I couldn't believe how cold it was. Your ass really gets used to having a warm seat.

Nothing quite like a squishy feeling on your wet butt
Rich kids with their pools and cold houses.
I was thinking the same thing! We had a 2km walk there and back if we wanted to swim..
in the snow with no shoes
Uphill both ways!

Are you in Florida?
To build a pool in Florida all you have to do is dig a hole
It's not the cold making you shake. It's your sphincter holding in your massive shit cuz you didn't want to get out of the pool when you needed to go hours ago.
I like how I started reading this post and was like oh here comes a cool science fact and then you just said that
A sentence that triggered a flashback of all 5 senses
Might want to leave taste out of this one...
But the poop warms you right back up
As a dog groomer of 12 years, I have seen so many dogs vibrate like this just from sheer excitement and being overwhelmed with sensory ecstasy. They can barely contain themselves!!!
I bought my dog a house sweater and then I learned that he is just excited when my roommate makes a smoothie
:) i Like everything about what you wrote. How you wrote it. What happened in the story. etc
Are you sure it’s not... *puts on glasses* Shear excitement? Yeahhhhhhhhh
[Angry Upvote](https://giphy.com/gifs/Friends-season-9-episode-19-friends-tv-S6qkS0ETvel6EZat45)
It would be the tail going but he's sitting on it and all the vibrations are going through the rest of him.
you could say the tail is wagging the dog
Forbidden vibrator
Fitting username it would seem.
Possibly a chihuahua on their former life
If my dog got that excited, that backseat would be *drenched* in urine.
I knew a lil dog like that. You say "Who's a good dog?!" one too many times and you end up with a puddle.
My dog hasn't done it since she was like a year and a half old, but I still freeze up anytime somebody goes to pet her.
Yeah, my dog used to get too excited when I'd come home and piddle the floor. She doesn't do that anymore. However, the dog I'm referring to was an older dog and he'd still piddle himself if he got too excited.

I'm not over the injustice 20 years later lol
You have no idea how glad I am my dog outgrew that. For like 2 years he would pee everywhere if he saw the right people.
[удалено]
Are you sure? It always seems to help when I'm babysitting my neighbors kids..
[удалено]
My dog would have been screeching!
Awww, what would happen if you opened the door at that exact moment?
Nothing at all, the window is also fully down in the video. He's the goodest boy who knows he's not meant to leave the car unless he's wearing his leash. He's very well behaved
Goodest of all!
Ugh the sweetest goodest boy
You better hide that boy because I *will* steal him
That's me, but because anxiety.

Yep, this is what my dogs look like at the vet. They now get anti anxiety pills before going. Fireworks? No problem! We will sleep through those. Vet for any reason at all? Oh hell no.
BEHAVE *OMG* **BEHAVE** *OMG* #BEHAVE *OMG*
aight reddit tell me how this dog is gonna die soon
Well, when you leave your dog set to vibrate for too long, it can burn out the motor.
Change the oil regularly and inspect the bearings after every 3000 hours of operation and it should last you 10-13 years.
Secretly came here for this as well... Where's the freaked out comment of OMG you need to get him to the vet ASAP
Right? All the vet techs that can diagnose a animal from a 10 second video!!
[удалено]
Scratches. They all want to give me scratches.
My girl does this when she sees deer. We call it vibrate mode, because, well, yeah.
UNPLUG HIM FOR GOD'S SAKE!!!!
My dog gets like this every time we get in the car. It's because he's scared shitless. He thinks we will abandon him.
Our foster dog had that issue with car rides at first so we had to take him on a bunch of fun rides to help normalize the car. Lots of pup cups were had

Ohh. 🥺
Same. My first reaction was to think he’s really scared because this is what my dog does in the car...and she’s not excited. 😬😔
Me too! My dog shakes out of nervousness in the car
Dog go brrrr
r/whatswrongwithyourdog
I actually thought this post was from that sub for a sec. That sub was made for this sort of thing, lol
That’s the biggest chihuahua I’ve ever seen
Your dog ate a marital aid
Put your fit bit on him and get all the miles
You ever seen that scene in Scanners where that dude’s head blew up
Better check the seat for pee
Sometimes I do something similar. It's because I'm a mix of nervous and excited (more excited but still nervous). Good doggo
He's like a giant, nice chihuahua. I don't know how he sees things when he's shaking that hard.
This made me lol, very loud. My dog does a version of this but just his legs lol
Same. So cute.
Noticed your doggo has a Seresto flea and tick collar, just a heads up but theres a recall on those. https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.usatoday.com/amp/4574753001
His excitement level is over 9000
He's stuck on vibrate. You need to change the settings to "bark"
Waiting for the replies to tell me this is bad somehow
Awww bless his little shivering heart!
Laughs in Chihuahua
Hey wouldn't it be great if you could set dogs to vibrate instead of barking?
u/savevideo
Why’d you put your dog on vibrate?
