I have a 4-month-old puppy named Dutch who has been having diarrhea. I've been giving him a bland diet of chicken, rice, and yogurt for two days, and the diarrhea seems better. However, he is not drinking water and is urinating frequently, squatting 3-5 times in a five-minute period, which is new behavior. He has been treated twice for giardia in the last month. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My dog has been throwing up bile and having mucousy diarrhea that started about 4 hours ago. The dog is lethargic, was fine and super active this morning, and is a 2.5-year-old 45lb Australian Shepherd. The dog takes NexGard and Heartgard every month. Is there anything else the veterinarian should be aware of about my dog?

My dog, Mia, a 6-month-old golden weighing 38 lbs, ate some gluten-free chocolate fudge cookies with white chocolate chips. Will she be able to digest this, and is there any need for concern or action?

My 80lb dog ate an extremely large bone quickly two days ago. His stool is very hard and dry, but he shows no lethargy, vomiting, or abnormal behavior. Is this an immediate vet visit, and what should I look out for?

My 2-year-old boxer, Bear, has had red bumps on his skin, mainly on his sides, back legs, and chest, for about 4 months. The bumps vary in size and are bright red, with some under his skin causing hair to stand up. They don't itch him, and he's on heartworm prevention and Benadryl as needed. The bumps went away partially but returned. What could these bumps be, and what should I do about them?
