I have an 11-year-old black lab with recurring issues including eye discharge, fever, weakness, abdominal swelling, and loss of appetite. She has an elevated neutrophil count but normal other blood values. The liver on an x-ray appears misshapen. She is currently on prednisone and a penicillin antibiotic, but her condition relapses when the steroid is weaned. What could be causing these symptoms, and is there a way to definitively diagnose the issue through blood or urine culture?

My dog threw up 20 minutes after taking her meds and dinner. I don’t know if she got any meds in her system or not. Fiona is an 8-year-old pit mix with an inoperable brain tumor and is on 5 mg prednisone 2x a day and 64.8 mg of prednisone 2x a day. What should I do?

I have a labrador retriever weighing approximately 120lbs. She started vomiting undigested food last night and has vomited about 12 times. Now she is vomiting stomach gastric juices. I have taken all food away from her and am only giving small amounts of water. She is on an antibiotic and apoquel for a skin condition but I didn't give her any meds today. Is there anything I can do to help her now?

My female dog, a 10-pound Yorkie/Cavalier mix, has been on an organic diet of chicken, carrots, broccoli, and chicken broth for a month. Recently, she has developed orange diarrhea, lethargy, loss of appetite, and occasional coughing up of a peanut. Her stool is also diarrhea. What could be causing this and what steps should I take?

Is it likely that my dog will have an allergic reaction to 2mg of valium, and if he has swallowed a 2mg tablet, will it affect him?

My dog, May, may have ingested some of my 50mg desvenlafaxine about an hour ago. I'm not sure how much or if she had any at all. She seems fine energy-wise, threw up once but I did not see any pills in her vomit. She is 11 months old and weighs 10 lbs. What should I do?
