The vestibular system is the part of the body responsible for maintaining balance. Vestibular disease means a problem with the balance system. Balance problems in dogs are relatively common. Head tilt, incoordination and abnormal eye movements are common clinical signs. Owners may state that their dog has vertigo, is off balance or had a stroke.
There are two parts of the vestibular system: the peripheral vestibular system and the central vestibular system. The peripheral vestibular system is made up of the parts of the vestibular system that are outside of the brain (the inner ear and the nerve). The central vestibular system is the part of the balance system inside the brain (vestibular nuclei and their connections to other parts of the brain and spinal cord).
