Do dogs shiver because their excited or it generally down to anxiety and stress :dunno:

both - and also if they're in pain as well ;)

the only time my dog shivered was when he was in pain

mine does in sheer excitement when we're going on walks he loves and he knows where we're going and just before a shoot :D (he calms down when he's there!)

Mine do it in excitement, anxiety and pain.

Our puppy Holly shivers when she is in a new situation she is unsure of.

My lightly coated two will shiver after a wet walk. Equfleece sorts them out along with food.
-
Mine shivers from excitement (before a walk) or fear-anxiety or stress, if you may- (happened at the vets, when he was in for a thorough consultation, skin scrape and blood test).
-
Cassie shivers with the cold( I wrap her in a fleece) but also in fear e.g the vets
-
Archie shivers if he has a temp. It was the first sign something was wrong after his castration.

Miya needs to be spayed early next year (but she doesn't know yet) so that can't be why she's shivering :D
I guess I'll just put it down to excitement as her eating and toilet duties appear normal :luv:

Twigs sits and shivers when she is waiting for a treat - and knows she is going to get one!

Yes, I have thought of this :doh:
However, Miya sleeps in her own room and her crate next to an inside wall and although we put a little blanket over her I get the feeling she just kicks it off. OH reckons dogs would not feel cold with all that fur and a beautiful soft faux mattress to sleep on :-\ :dunno:
