I left my puppy in Arizona alone with my cousin because the airport refused to let my puppy fly without a rabies certificate stating the puppy received the rabies vaccine 30 days before the flight.

My 13-year-old lab, Lacy, was diagnosed with a serious gas blockage and given medications including Ambipen, Buprenorphine, and Flagyl. However, she has shown adverse reactions such as difficulty walking and severe panting. What should I do to help her recover, and should I continue with the prescribed medications?

Our 14-year-old basset hound has been bothered by the extreme heat, and this evening she hasn't eaten. She ate breakfast this morning but refused her treat. Does this sound like bloat?

My three dogs got into a bag of dasuquin and they ate a total of 6 biscuits. Do you mean they ate 6 capsules/tablets, and how much do they weigh?
