My dog Sage, who is about 20 weeks old, has been experiencing frequent urination and more accidents inside than normal for the past 2 days. She had a similar UTI before at around 14 weeks old. What could be causing this and what steps should I take to address it?

My dog had his anal glands done last Wednesday and has been fine, but today he has been scooting a lot and has a small red area around his anus. My vet is closed, and I don’t want this getting more inflamed. What can I do to soothe him and prevent it from worsening until Monday?

My Yorkie, Piper, chews at her nails after getting groomed. This behavior started 6 months ago, and she has no known allergies. Her nails look pink, and she is 3 years old. What could be causing this and what should I check?

My dog had a cast removed, but her nails were too long and cut her skin, leaving a wound. The vet advised putting a cone on her and letting it heal, but I'm concerned about the lack of antibiotics or bandaging. What can I do to help her heal and ensure she can walk without further injury?

My chihuahua, Tiny, has runny stools with worms for 2 days. She vomited the night before last and has a small amount of blood in her stool, along with what looks like a tapeworm segment. She weighs 3 lbs, has no known medical problems, and has been given pyrantel pamoate 1/2 ml. What should I do to help her?
