I have a Great Dane named Macy, who is nearly 10 years old. She is not acting normal today; she is sleeping a lot, had trouble getting up this morning, and is shivering while laying down. She went to the bathroom and is drinking water. She was recently treated for a UTI with amoxicillin, which she finished about a week ago. What could be causing her symptoms, and what should I do?

My 7.2 pound Yorkie has not eaten or drunk since Wednesday, is very weak, and vomits immediately after eating or drinking. He also seems more tired than usual and is not in pain. What can we do to help him?

My dog, Ranger, a 4-year-old Golden Retriever, has a swollen dewclaw digit that doesn't seem to be causing him pain, but it has been like this for a month. There is some redness around the base of the nail, and he has been on antibiotics for a week with an extension for another week and added carpofren for inflammation. What could be causing this swelling, and is it serious?

Some of my 10-week-old puppies have bloated stomachs, feel hard, and are unusually tired. They are pooping and have had normal feeding and plenty of water. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My dog, BB, has a recurring fungus on her skin that looks like a thin layer of light grey mud in patches. She has been treated with antibiotics and antiseptic shampoo by her regular vet, but the problem keeps coming back. I want to find out what causes this fungus so I can treat the problem not just the symptoms. She licks her paws a lot and is on Iams Small Breed dry food, sometimes lamb & rice, sometimes the regular formula. She is also on Nexgard and Heartgard. What could be causing this and how can I address it?

My daughter’s dog, Lady Penny, a 4-year-old golden retriever corgi mix weighing 45-50 lbs, ate approximately 15 melatonin gummies (10 mg each) about 30 minutes ago. She seems a little sleepy but shows no signs of nausea. What should we do?
