Hi Dr. Porter! My 9-month-old French Bulldog, Bella, is in her heat cycle and has been bleeding for about 21 days. The bleeding is slowing down but hasn't stopped completely. Is this abnormal, and should I be concerned about any foul discharge or odor? Additionally, we recently found a dead tick on Bella, and the area is red and irritated. She is on Simparica Trio monthly. Is this normal, and should we watch for any complications? Also, Bella has a white spot on her eye that concerns us. Should we get this checked out?

My 11-year-old dog, Osito, has been looking sad and licking his genitals since his anal glands were released on Tuesday. He has a slightly swollen anus and some discharge from his penis, but he can still pee and poop. What could be wrong, and what should I do?
