I have a 10-month-old Maltese female named Molly. She was diagnosed with Giardia at 5 months old and has been treated with Panacur and Metronidazole, but the parasite hasn't been fully eradicated. Additionally, Molly eats her feces, which complicates the treatment. We've tried increasing her food and using Adolph's tenderizer, but she still occasionally eats her feces. The vet suggested using Forbid to stop this behavior. We're unsure if repeating the Panacur treatment would be harmful or effective. What should we do to fully treat the Giardia and stop Molly from eating her feces?

My chihuahua mix has two red patches of skin on her belly around the area where the hind legs meet. The areas have some flaking and hair loss, and the skin smells bad. She didn't eat yesterday when we first noticed the rash but is acting fine today and barely itching. Should I be worried?

My dog is not eating, not responsive, and just wants to lay down. She was fine all day until we let her outside, and it's been about 44 degrees. We just cut down a rhododendron bush yesterday, and I'm worried she might have eaten some of it. What could be causing her symptoms and what should I do?

My dog, a Maltese/Yorkie mix weighing approximately 12-13 pounds, ate a piece of my sweatpants (60% cotton, 40% polyester) about the size of a tennis ball. He is now intermittently shivering, acting depressed, hasn't eaten or drank anything, and has hyperactive bowel tones. Should I be concerned about the material passing through his digestive tract, and is there anything I can do to help him?

Good afternoon, I have a 6-year-old dog whose third eyelid is working but is extremely slow in going back to where it should be. I look at her head-on and her face around the eyes looks funny as if the eye sockets are a bit sunken. She looks a bit oriental. What could be causing this and what should I do?
