I have a 1-year-old American Pitbull rescue who has been experiencing chronic intermittent diarrhea despite being on medication and a special diet. He also has a ruptured ear drum and is lethargic. What additional steps can be taken to address his diarrhea and improve his overall health?

My 9-month-old Doberman won't eat, has whole body shakes, diarrhea, increased aggression, and just vomited potatoes and a carrot from 2 days ago. No signs of abdominal pain when I touch her belly. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My dog is throwing up several times a day. The vet suspects a congenital stricture on the pyloric valve causing irritation in the upper stomach and esophagus. Is there an operation to fix this problem, how much does it cost, and where can I get it done near Clearwater BC, Kamloops BC?

Good evening Dr. Gary, I would like to review my dog's history with you and see what you think. Leo is an 8-year-old male Maltese diagnosed with IMHA in July 2015. He has been on prednisone, mycophenolate, and atopica. Recently, he had diabetic ketoacidosis and pancreatitis, and he tore both of his hind ACLs. He is now on 1 unit of insulin BID, 2.5 mg prednisone every other day, mycophenolate BID, and atopica BID. His last HCT was 33% and all other blood work is slowly returning to normal. Is it reasonable to think that we may be able to wean him off his IMHA meds at some point? Also, I have an appointment with the rehab department at UGA to evaluate his ACL issues. I am hoping to get him into their hydrotherapy program. What are your thoughts on this?

My English Setter dogs got into a bowl of Holiday mint M&M's, and ate several. They each weigh over sixty pounds and are almost 11 years old. Should I just watch them, or is there a need for immediate action?
