My 13-year-old dog, who was recently declared in great health after a vet visit with blood work, has been taking excessively long to pee and has had a few accidents in the house. Is this just due to old age or could it be something more serious?

I have a 2 1/2-year-old female Havanese who stopped eating 17 days ago. She has been diagnosed with IBD and has been through multiple treatments including exploratory surgery, IV fluids, and various medications. Despite these efforts, she continues to lose weight, has diarrhea, and vomits. She is now very weak and refuses to eat. What should I do to help her?

I have a 10-year-old Rottweiler who has been hacking deeply for a few months and recently started licking the carpet, which I associate with nausea. I changed his dog food around the same time, but I'm not sure if that's related. He has no known health conditions except for some limps that the vet doesn't think are cancerous. What could be causing these symptoms?

We have a dog who was hit by a car in a remote area in northern Canada. The dog's tail is infected, and it has been about 3 days without veterinary care. The dog is in pain and won't allow anyone to clean the wound. How can we clean the wound until the dog can receive proper treatment?

I have heard that Parastar Plus is more effective than Frontline Plus for deer ticks in Northern Minnesota, but I can't find any pet stores or vets in the central Minnesota area that sell Parastar Plus. They all recommend Frontline Plus. Is there a reason for this? Is Parastar Plus a health concern or problem?
