In November, my 8-year-old pit mix tore her ACL while playing. She was cleared for ACL surgery by the vet, who also prescribed ENDACARD for a slight heart murmur. However, she experienced a severe panting episode on Christmas night, followed by a noticeable increase in her belly size and loss of appetite two weeks later. We returned to the vet, who now says she is in dire condition and has prescribed different medications, including lasix. Could the ENDACARD have caused these issues?

My dog Tucker is not feeling well. He has symptoms like laziness, vomiting (once), diarrhea (once), and now he won't go up stairs or jump on the couch. He also has a large lump under his neck that feels like a bone but I've never felt it before. The vet ran a SNAP CPLI test for pancreatitis, which came back fine, and advised not to give him food until morning. Now he doesn't want to eat or drink. He often chews rawhides and is tied when outside. What could be wrong with him and what further tests or actions should I consider?

We have a miniature schnauzer. He has been licking the upper outside portion of his back leg. We noticed what looks like pink flesh bulging from his leg, however, there is no broken skin, no bleeding. It protrudes about 1/4" from the base of his leg. Any idea what this might be?

My 6-year-old dog has had itchy, smelly, and scabby ears for the past year. My family can't afford a vet bill. What can I do to help my dog?
