I have a 7-year-old dog named Bambi who has been experiencing skin itching, inflammation, and other symptoms such as excessive sleeping, red and hot skin, hair loss, and black spots on his skin. He has been treated with antibiotics, flea drops, anti-itch shampoo, and a dip solution. My concerns include his high body temperature, the black spots, and a black, dirt-like substance under his legs and tummy that won't wash off. What could be causing these issues and how can I treat them?

My dog was choking on a bone, but it cleared, but now his swallowing is weird like something is stuck. He drank water and some coconut oil. Should I rush him to the hospital? He seems to have a hiccup-like swallowing issue.

My 15-year-old dog has recently started wetting in the house. She has always been good about this before. She does this while awake but has a hard time holding herself upright to finish. She does not seem to be straining, and the urine appears to be clear. What could be causing this and what should I do?

I just got a 9-week-old Wheaten Terrier puppy. She had a healthy stool on Friday night but has since had looser stools, some reddish, and has been eating and drinking less. She also regurgitated white foam this morning. She's had her deworming and initial vaccines. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My dog has been diagnosed with tick worms in his blood which the vet would like to treat with Doxycycline. Is this for real?

My dog has been experiencing on/off tummy pains for almost 2 years, mainly at night. He isn't sick or having diarrhea but is in discomfort and sometimes has flatulence. The vets have done a fecal sample, tried steroids, anti-inflammatory drugs, and tramadol, but nothing helps. I've also tried a high-fiber diet, charcoal, and kalmaid, and today I've removed carbohydrates. Can anyone help?
