I have an American Bulldog mix with severe allergies. She is on Prednisone to control her constant itching. After starting Dinovite, a food supplement for allergies, she broke out in hives. My vet recommended Benadryl for three days and mineral oil to block the histamine reaction. I stopped the Dinovite and followed his instructions. The hives cleared up, but they have returned. Nothing in her diet or environment has changed. I restarted Benadryl. What could be causing the hives to return, and what should I do next?

The hives are likely due to an allergic reaction, which could be caused by food, insect/spider bites...

I have a 5-year-old, 20lb Papillion male dog. For two days, he has been lethargic, won't eat his dry food but drinks water, threw up clear sputum last night, appears constipated, and his nose is warm to the touch. Any suggestions?

I have a 6-year-old Boston Terrier with a sore shoulder from being picked up too much by the arm pits. He yaps when he exerts too much pressure on it. Will baby aspirin help and how much? Should I make him swallow it like a vet would or should I put it in a ball of dog food?

My 5-year-old Maltese had diarrhea and was taken to the vet. The vet found a small amount of protein in his urine, which they said is not a concern but something to watch. They also prescribed a probiotic paste called ProGut Oral Paste. What does the protein in the urine indicate, and what is the ProGut Oral Paste for?

Our 5-month-old dog has been very slow and drooling excessively today, which is unusual. We believe she may have eaten something harmful outside but are unsure. What should we do?

My dog keeps coughing and it looks like something is in her throat. How do I help her get it out? Also, do I need to deworm my dog, and what is heartworm disease? How much does a heartworm test cost, and can it be fatal?
