My dog, Lady Bug, has issues with her anal glands becoming full. I've added Metamucil to a previous dog's food for similar problems. Can I add MiraLAX or natural healthy fiber to her diet? Her stools are normal but small due to diet control, and she is slightly overweight. How can I increase the fiber in her diet safely?

My dog, Felip, a 7-year-old, is suddenly walking very slow and stiff, panting intermittently, and sitting strangely in the far corners of the house. He seems like he's in shock about something and has been very delicate. He also tried to find dark corners to hide in and put himself in a down dog position and held it for a while. He could have gotten into the compost yesterday and is eating and drinking gingerly. What could be the issue and what steps should I take?

My dog has idiopathic epilepsy and is currently experiencing cluster seizures. He is on maintenance Keppra ER 1500 MG every 12 hours. There is no emergency vet available, and I want to know if I can give him Ativan or an extra dose of Keppra ER to manage the seizures until I can get him to the vet in 4 hours. He is an Anatolian Shepherd, 3 years old.
