Can I use Voltaren gel topically in very small amounts for my dog's minor ankle pain and inflammation, and has it been used for dogs? My dog, Lani, is 9 1/2 years old and has a history of IBS and is on thyroid medication. She was running and got caught a bit, causing her ankle to be lightly painful and inflamed, but it is not broken or a bad sprain.

My dog, Jazzy, a 10-year-old diabetic, is breathing very fast. She just had a Vetsulin shot an hour ago. What should I do?

My dog, Adonis, has severe hives that turn into open sores, especially on his stomach and the inside of his legs. He has been on prednisone and Benadryl, but they only improve when he is on antibiotics like amoxicillin or ampicillin. The vet insists on continuing prednisone and doing an allergy test after weaning him off it, but I suspect it might be an infection. Is there any kind of infection that mimics an allergic reaction, and what should I do about the worsening condition?

My dog seems very sad and weak, not walking, with slight blood on his ears, locked jaw, drooling, and dry nose. He is also having trouble breathing and refusing food and water. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?

My 80-pound labradoodle has been taking 300 mg of gabapentin every 12 hours for pain for the last 6 days. After the last pill, she became groggy and listless, and now she doesn't want to move or respond much. Is this dosage too high, should I stay up and monitor her, and is she in any danger? Should I give her the next dose in twelve hours, or can I stop the medication suddenly?
