I have an eight-year-old soft coat Wheaton terrier named Cooper. He has started peeing and pooping in the house, itches constantly to the point of crying when he scratches, and bites himself when not scratching. He has been on numerous medications but nothing is helping. His food has been changed, but the itching persists. He does not have fleas. The peeing and pooping started about nine months ago, and he seems a little depressed, drinks lots of water, and has digestive problems, vomiting foamy stomach bile. He was treated for a UTI several months ago. What could be causing these issues and what can be done to help him?

My 9-month-old Maltipoo, Ryder, occasionally eats her own poop and has recently had trouble with firm stools. She has not seen a vet and is not on any medications. What can be done to address these issues, and how can I ensure the dog food I'm giving her provides all necessary nutrients?

My dog potentially ate gum containing xylitol. The dog weighs 40lbs, and one or two pieces of gum were eaten. What should I do, and what are the potential symptoms and risks of hypoglycemia?

My 4-year-old Yorkie has a rash on her back near her tail, with patches and scabs. She keeps biting the area, causing it to bleed. I have washed the area with dish soap, applied flea medication, given her Benadryl, and sprayed Vetericyn Plus on the wound. What can I do to help her, and can I apply cortisone or neosporin? What could this be?

My dog, Zander, has been sneezing a lot, sometimes wheezing and gagging but not throwing up. He sounds like he has kennel cough and these symptoms started about 3-4 days after boarding. What could be causing this and what can I do to help him?

My dog, Remy, was in a dog fight and has a bleeding nose and a puncture wound on his left side. There is no emergency vet open now, so what can I do to stop the bleeding until tomorrow?
