Wet-dog shakesIntraventricular administration of carbachol chloride evoked wet-dog shakes (WDS) in rats in a dose-related manner. WDS induced by carbachol at the dose of 20 microgram were antagonized by scopolamine, atropine, cyproheptadine, morphine, clonidine, phentolamine, haloperidol, and L-5-...

dripping, they spray water everywhere with thewet dog shake. From dogs, cats, and rats to lions, tigers, and bears, nearly all hairy mammals will shake themselves dry when their fur gets wet. However, despite wet dog shakes being so common, scientists don’t know what causes this behavior...
Rats that received DFP or CF showed typical signs of AChE toxicity, including tremors,wet dog shakes, mild to moderate seizures, and convulsions, with rearing and falling over progressing to severe seizures within 15–30 min. Significant increases in F2-IsoPs and F4-NeuroPs were seen in the ...
wet-dog shakeshippocampal epileptic dischargeenkephalinamideThe effects of taurine on wet-dog shakes produced by [ d-Ala 2,Met 5] enkephalinamide (DAME) were investigated in rats. Wet-dog shakes and epileptic discharges in the hippocampus were produced by intraventricular administration of 50 μg ...
Intraventricular injection of a low dose (2 nmol) of ketocyclazocine induced wet-dog shaking (WDS) in rats. This response was prevented by 10 mg/kg naloxone, but not 1 mg/kg. Wet-dog shaking has been previously reported following low doses of endorphins, but only high doses of morphine...
The smaller the animal, the more rotations per second it would have to make in order to dry off. For example, while a mouse with a radius of 2 cm (less than an inch) would have to shake with a frequency of 27 hz (shakes per second), a dog with a radius of 20 cm would only ...
