My dog, Riley, a 9-year-old Chihuahua, has been experiencing a runny nose, labored breathing, shivering, and losing fur around his neck. He also has been coughing and his breathing became strange this morning. He has been through the addition of two new dogs in the house due to family changes. What could be causing these symptoms and what can I do to help him?

My American Staffordshire Terrier, Deja, has an extremely red rash on her thighs and groin area. She has had it for a while and has been on two types of antibiotics, ointment, and shampoo. The rash worsened after boarding her at a kennel for 9 days. She has a history of sensitivity in this area but has always cleared up before. What could be causing this rash and what should I do?
