I have a German Shepherd puppy that initially got sick, recovered, but now my girlfriend's Pomeranian and Chihuahua are sick. The Chihuahua, named Blue, is a rescue and is barely moving, pooping blood, and won't eat or drink. Neither of the first two dogs had any shots, and I don't know about Blue. What should I be aware of and what should the veterinarian know?

My 9-year-old Shih Tzu, Jojo, was diagnosed with a swollen salivary gland 2 weeks ago. The vet prescribed antibiotics and anti-inflammatories, but the gland burst and has now started swelling back up. What should I do?

My dog was sneezing frequently for about 5 hours after running around the neighborhood, but has not sneezed since. Is this likely due to a foxtail? Should I take him to the vet for removal, or is there another way to diagnose this without sedation? Should I wait for new symptoms or take him now?

My dog, Chipper, a 10-year-old corgi-chihuahua mix, has been exhibiting shaking, licking, lifting her paw, and staring into space. She had a neck injury three weeks ago that caused her to cry and shake when scared, and the vet suspected a spine injury. She has been on crate rest and prednisone, which has finished. She is eating, peeing, and pooping fine but started shaking again this morning. What should I do to help her calm down?

My 13-year-old male Dachshund, Max, has a previous back injury and seems to have hurt it again. Is there an over-the-counter pain or muscle relaxer I can give him as my vet is closed and I have no more pain meds or muscle relaxers for him?
