Shivering in dogs can be normal under some conditions like exposure to cold conditions and after swimming. But dogs also shiver due to some medical condition which should be investigated by the vet. Following are some medical causes of shivering in dogs.

I have two shih tzu and my puppy did that once and my vet told me that my puppy blood sugar my have drop and since they are small dog I have to feed them more them bigger dogs and once I started  feeding them 3 times a day they had not done it

My shih tzu is shaking and when I pick her up, she starts yelping like something is hurting her. What could be wrong

Of course you need to take it to a vet but feel around its body and if your dog starts to yelp that is where she is hurting. Or it could be you are holding him/her wrong. If your dog is shaking maybe you could just turn up the heat a little.
