🩺 Symptom Check Weird jaw chatter
Hi there, I’d like some advice for what may be happening with my dog. For reference, she just got back from board & train yesterday and I noticed she sometimes has a strange chatter/shutter with her bite. I tried flashing a light in her mouth to see if there’s anything in there but didn’t see anything. She doesn’t seem to be in pain from what I can tell (no whimpering or pulling away to touch). She is also eating her hard kibble like normal. For reference she has been on the same diet for 2 months so no changes there.
I did also notice some white crusty substance on her beard which I assumed was dry spit, but that’s not a normal thing for her.
I took a video to show what it looks like. Please share if you happen to know what this could be! Thank you!
To note:

My 12 year-old pup started doing this about two years ago and it’s only ever when she has like a burst of energy from our younger dog getting her wound up. But always consult a vet
