Approximately 3 weeks ago, my dog had what looked like a scab appear on her skin. Upon my return from a week-long trip, she has started licking it, and it is now raised, red, and looking like it is getting infected. Where is the scab located?

Is it safe to stop worrying about TQ's elevated BUN levels (51 on 09/02; 34 on 09/03; and 44 on 09/12) and proceed with his scheduled dental prophy on 09/25, given that his urine is concentrating properly, creatinine is not elevated, and BP is normal?

We have a 5-month-old German Shepherd puppy who has been experiencing constant diarrhea for weeks and has now started vomiting tonight. We have tried various treatments, including antibiotics, a bland diet, and probiotics, but nothing has helped. What could be causing these symptoms and what further steps can we take?

I have a 10lb Maltese with diarrhea. I tried cholestyramine at a dosage of 1/8 tsp twice a day, which worked for about 3 weeks, but the diarrhea started again. Should I increase the dosage, or is there another approach I should consider?

I have a 7-year-old pitbull mix. He is having trouble with his hind leg or hip, having difficulty sitting and standing, whimpering, and has a rapidly growing lump on his left side by his ribs. Are these two problems related?
