I have a 35lb, 5 month old great pyrenees mix that loves to sit on my lap. The only problem is that she doesn't know where her body is in space all the time and has a tendency to whip her head up into my jaw. I've taken one or two of these hits before without bother but am spiraling a bit after taking a particularly hard one yesterday.

I've heard anecdotes of people getting concussed from their dogs and know you can certainly sustain a concussion from a jaw hit. My last concussion was almost two years ago from mountain biking and with a somewhat long concussion history, I'm very sensitive about head hits now.

Right now, I'm feeling a bit spacy and have a very stiff neck and intermittent headache. I also deal with anxiety and know I could be manifesting these symptoms.

Any help for how to approach this? Is there a chance I am concussed or am I probably making this up again? Or is it maybe a mix and my neck muscles locked up to keep my head from moving?

Thanks in advance friends.
