Shoulder joint: The flexible ball-and-socket joint formed by the junction of the humerus and the scapula. This joint is cushioned by cartilage that covers the face of the glenoid socket and head of the humerus. The joint is stabilized by a ring of fibrous cartilage (the labrum) around the glenoid socket.
Dogs can drop/lower their ears when they are both happy and nervous. Itâs important to read the rest of the dog. I prefer to call ears, âdroppedâ when the dog is offering pro social behavior, like our dog below. You can see our dog is offering a lovely kiss to his friendâs face. His body is likely wiggly and loose.eutral position means that they are not pricked forward, drooping down or pasted to his head. Whatever the dogâs breed, they are just sitting easy. Here is a relaxed dog with neutral ears. The other body language that tells me this dog is relaxed is the big open mouth and relaxed, drooping tongue.
Causes of Dog Seizures. Just like people can have seizures and seizure disorders, so can dogs. Basically, brain cells use electrical and chemical signals to communicate, which can either activate another neuron or shut off a neuron. Seizures are thought to be caused when there is an imbalance of excitatory and inhibitory signals in the brain. Dogs, like people, have a normal neurological activity level within the brain that keeps the brain cells from getting too excited, and when too many brain cells are excited at once, a seizure can start up.
