My German Shepherd's stomach has gotten really big, but I can still feel his ribs, and I'm worried about him. He is about 11 years old. Did the enlarged stomach happen quickly within a day or weeks? Is he behaving uncomfortable or restless? Any vomiting, coughing, or diarrhea? Is he drinking more than usual? Any pre-existing medical conditions?

My dog swallowed an over-the-counter water pill (Diurex Aquagel with 50 mg of active ingredient). Is there anything I should do?

My Labrador had an inflamed nipple removed last week, and the biopsy came back as Mast Cell, grade 2 with clean margins. I understand there is an additional test to determine if the cancer is slow or aggressive. Should I get the 2nd test results back before seeing an Oncologist, or should I see the Oncologist first and then order the 2nd test? Also, how quickly do I need to do this?

I have a 14-year-old Westie who has been very healthy but recently has shown signs of weakness in his back legs, difficulty getting up, and a prominent spine. I also found a soft lump on his left hip. He's still eating and drinking well. What could be causing these symptoms, and should I be preparing for something serious?

My dog got a hold of a bottle of Deramaxx, 6.5 75mg tablets. I tried peroxide to induce vomiting. What other steps should I take or watch for?
