I have a 2-year-old, unaltered male husky/wolf/micro pitbull mix named Shiloh with severe separation anxiety. He stares at the door all day when I'm gone, even when my son-in-law is home with him. If we're all gone, he howls. My first grandbaby is due next month, and I will be traveling for two weeks in April. Last year, a week-long trip was very hard on him. How can I help him cope with his anxiety without spending a lot of money?

My dog, David, has yellow oil all down his rear legs and is seeping from his anus. He is acting normal otherwise. This started this morning. He was at the vet 2 weeks ago and is on seizure meds (zonisamide and Keppra, as well as denamarin). He had elevated liver enzymes 3 months ago but was not considered in liver failure.

Hello! My question today is about my friend's German Short-Haired Pointer, Storm, who is a 3-year-old female. She is very active and obsessed with fetching, often bringing toys, rocks, or even tiny sticks to me. This behavior is annoying and somewhat anxiety-provoking. I have a 2-year-old fox red lab who is more chill. My questions are: 1. Is this normal for the breed? 2. Would this be considered 'fetch obsession'? 3. Is it better not to play fetch with her at all? 4. What can be done?

My 5-month-old dog, Oakley, weighing just over 30lb, ate a decent amount of chocolate-covered pretzels and white chocolate M&Ms yesterday. He vomited a few times overnight but is still eating and drinking. What should I do?

My 9-year-old dog, Mary Jane, who weighs 70lbs, ate about 7oz of dark chocolate about 4 hours ago. She has not vomited until 30 minutes ago and is currently shaking. What should I do?

My dog ate a cracker with poppy seeds on it. I've heard poppy seeds can be toxic to dogs. How many seeds did the dog eat? Any vomiting yet? Is there anything else the Vet should know before I connect you?
