My niece has a year old husky. She has noticed tremors in his back legs after they run. She says he doesn’t act sick at all. Any thoughts on what it could be

Definitely an injury or degenerative issue. Stop all jumping & running immediately and go to the vet. Need X-rays of both legs, hip dysplasia X-ray and test knee joints or for any ligaments torn. Check back for nerve injury. Hopefully it’s none of these but it’s best to find out before it’s debilitating.

I am no doctor, but my maltese/pekingese has had back leg tremors after an aggressive run or ball chasing episode, and I believe it is adrenalin. The exact same thing used to happen to me when I was a drag racer. He will be 16 in December and is just now starting to show signs of aging. Btw, his brother also has the tremors, but not near as pronounced.
