My 11 and 3/4-year-old Rottweiler, Zoe, was diagnosed with Horner's disease two months ago. She is having serious difficulty standing, has taken to eating lying down, and I have to carry her out. The vet said she has 3 to 6 months left and is too old for chemo. What should I do to improve her quality of life?

My dog, Cheyenne, a 9-year-old Golden Retriever, has been experiencing a gradual loss of control over her back half of the body, leading to falls, stumbling, and loss of balance. There is no sensation in her back half, and the condition has escalated over the past week. There are no wounds or recent injuries, and she does not exhibit shaking of the head, scratching, or abnormal eye movement. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My dog, Enzo, has a rash that is spreading around the base of his scrotum. He has been dealing with allergies and yeast infections on his paws/underarms for about a month, and the vet has given him antirobe, douxo chlorhexidine mousse, and Temaril P. The rash on his scrotum has persisted and gotten worse. The scrotum is red and inflamed, but it doesn't seem to bother him much. What could be causing this rash, and what can I do to manage it until I can get him to the vet?

My boxer/mastiff female had patellar luxation surgery two years ago. She weighs about 100 pounds and her condition is getting worse. She is having trouble standing, difficulty getting up, shaking when standing, limping, and crying/whimpering more. She currently receives joint chews daily. Is there a doctor that understands this condition and knows how to help her?
