I am fostering a young staffie bitch, around 9/10 months old, for the local dog rescue. She is severely traumatized, shakes when frightened, and has a history of being confined in a dark or gloomy space. She bolts her food, wees frequently, and has bowel movements three or more times a day. She is currently on antibiotics for kennel cough and needs vaccinating and worming. She is terrified of going outside and has selected a secure corner in my home. How can I help her overcome her traumas and prepare her for a permanent, caring home?

My 40-pound Appenzell Mountain Dog ate a 25mg Hydrochlorthizide water pill and 0.88 mg of a Sinthroid pill. She had peed on the couch and floor and is a little more hyper than usual, but otherwise seems normal. What are the potential effects of these medications on my dog?
