I accidentally gave my small dog, Sadie, a dose of Simparica meant for my large dog. Sadie is 8 years old, weighs about 16 lbs, and the Simparica dose is for dogs 44 lbs and over. What should I do?

The Simparica drug has a wide margin of safety, and it is unlikely that Sadie will experience any ad...

My vet says my dog, Olive, who is one year old, has a high pH. I am trying to find a dog food to help with this issue. Is there a specific type of dog food that can help stabilize urine pH to avoid stone or crystal formation?

My dog has been taking Prednisone for a week to help with arthritic/disc pain and presumably cancer, but it's not helping. She seems just as stiff but more out of it & today the increased appetite we had been seeing is gone. Can I switch her back to Carprofen tomorrow without ill effect? And add Tramadol? Her vet had said euthanasia made sense, given her affect and blood work. Now I can't reach her. Just want to make my dog as comfortable as we can for the next few days.

My 80 lb, 6-year-old German Shepherd named Nax ate a whole container of Kinpur Allergy immune treats 2 hours ago and I gave him 4 tbsp of hydrogen peroxide 30 minutes ago, but he hasn't vomited yet. What should I do?

My dog, Hope, a 5-year-old spayed female, has a discolored and possibly irritated area around her vagina, which may be leaking a substance. She doesn't seem to be licking or scratching the area, and I noticed it while cleaning her paws. What could be the issue, and what should I do?

Good afternoon. I have a 12-year-old Chihuahua with heart problems. Her stool has become loose over the last couple of days and today it was a bit bloody. She is on medications including Prednisone, Pimobendan, Enalapril, Spironolactone, Fursemide, and Hydrone/Homatropine. She still has plenty of energy and her appetite is good. Should I stop any medication or food?
