Hi, I have a 7.5 year old rescue dog, Arlo, who is mixed breed. He just had an episode, the third since we adopted him 3.5 months ago. He stops what he’s doing and freezes in some sort of awkward position (this time had one paw in air, one leg bent). Starts shaking very very hard. His whole body is vibrating. He licks his lips repeatedly. Lasts 10 minutes or so. I’m holding him now and he’s still shaking. We brought it up to a vet after the first time and she wasn’t concerned. But this is definitely weird and I don’t know if we should go to the vet right now.

My 70-pound Doberman, Zora, ate some Bio Flow Drain Strips about 45 minutes ago. She seems fine currently, but we are unsure if we need to take her to the emergency vet. How much did she eat, and what should we do?

My dog, Andy, a 6-year-old, has had sudden onset of bloody diarrhea multiple times today, is less thirsty, not interested in food or water, and is alert but shaky and nervous. Does this require immediate vet attention?

My 11-year-old Shitzu, Bentley, has been struggling with sneezing, congestion, and itching for months. He's had three rounds of antibiotics with moderate improvement, but symptoms return a few days after each round. He's been eating and drinking normally, no fever, and has been licking and scratching his skin. I've tried Benadryl, which mildly helps. What could be causing his symptoms, and what can be done to ease them?

My dog, Kali, a 6-year-old Staffordshire Bull Terrier weighing over 60 pounds, is randomly yelping and shaking. She was fine this morning but started showing these symptoms this afternoon. What could be causing this, and what should I do?

My 11-year-old dog, Hank, may have been exposed to parvo from a neighbor's new puppy who had diarrhea and vomiting and hasn't had her shots. Hank has had loose bowels today, but this was before the exposure. He has been vaccinated for parvo. What should I do to ensure Hank's health and manage any potential symptoms?
