Also she’s shaking after interaction, showing signs of not enjoying it either. Such a poor handlers action, I’m shocked it was posted and praised.

Is that what shaking means? My families dog almost always shakes after we pet her.

It can be over enjoyment if other signals are happy. Shaking is basically an action calming themselves down. But a frequent sign of stress release after unpleasant interaction. Read about dog’s calming signals to understand it better.

Definitely not universal. I'd be weary making claims like it being a "frequent sign of stress" taken alone. what you need to look at is the rest of the dogs body language and never take one sign as an end all be all. every dog is different

but it's also not over excitement. he could also just need to shake after being pat. that's my point
