My 8-year-old dog drools in his crate when I'm gone and pees in the house if not crated, despite no UTI symptoms or fevers. He only pees in the same spot and only when I'm gone, a behavior that has persisted for 4 months. I've tried amitriptyline before without improvement. What can be done to address this behavior?

Is Previcox safe for my 15 lb Cavalier King Charles Spaniel? He is 11 years old and was prescribed Previcox for a limp. He has never been on pill therapy before. He started with 3/4 of a 227 mg pill, but 5 days later, he is shivering, more lethargic, and seems depressed. Is he just getting used to the Previcox? How can he have a slight limp and then take this medicine, and now has arthritis? Is it a coincidence, or is the medicine causing these issues? What would you do in my situation to treat my dog?

My dog drank three slurps of RV antifreeze the other day. He didn't seem drunk or anything. I got him lots of regular water and all seems good. More than 24 hours later. I am wondering if I should have done more. Any help would be appreciated. I saw the words non-toxic and figured that it was safe. However, I've seen posts that indicate otherwise. Please help.
