I have a large mixed breed female dog who has been suffering from itching for over a year. She takes Benadryl twice a day and is on Vectra 3D. We've tried mud baths, oatmeal baths, and nothing seems to help. She is constantly itching, scratching, or licking and avoids laying on grass. My vet says it's psoriasis. How can I help my dog?

My dog, Chester, has been passing diarrhea and bright red blood in his stool for the past few days. He is lethargic, has no appetite, and drinks small amounts of water. He has had gastritis before but never passed blood. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My dog Lotus, a 1-year-old Siberian Husky, hit his eye yesterday and it's red. Should I take him to the vet, and what can I do in the meantime to help him?

My dog vomited in the car, and there were bright red spots that looked like blood in his bile. Could the citronella from his bark collar have caused a chemical reaction, or is the bright red something concerning? My dog did not eat anything red or get into anything red.

I have a 2-year-old Cairn Terrier that has injured her right paw. There are no cuts or swelling, and she doesn't want to walk on it bare. What can I do at home to help her?

My dog has ongoing skin allergies. We previously had a trumpet vine in our yard, and I'm wondering if her allergies could be related to eating the vine's leaves, even though we removed it once we realized it was toxic. She is otherwise healthy and we've been treating her with steroids and 2x per week baths, but I'd like to get her off the steroids. What could be causing her allergies and what can I do to help her?
