well, sometimes they will shake because of his muscles being tired out. Its like when humans exercise, sometimes our bodys will shake due to streneous activity. It is probably the same with other animals. I wouldnt be too worried unless he shakes at other times of the day, like just sitting or lying down without doing any exercise. It also depends on the dog breed. Smaller breeds tend to shake more than larger dog breeds. I hope i could be of some help!!! Good Luck!!

There is no way to say. You should take him to the vets and have him checked.
It could be just muscle spasms but I wouldn't want to wait to see get to the vet. i will say I don't think it's an emergency.

If he was overweight, he may have put too much pressure on the joints, get the vet to check them
