My dog keeps getting his legs hurt by jumping fences. I keep securing the fences but he finds a way through and jumps over or through. I don't know for a fact this is the problem I am making an educated guess. How should I stabilize his leg so it can heal?

My brother's 7-year-old spayed female Chihuahua is unable to use the legs on her right side without pain. The vet suspects a spinal issue between the base of the neck and shoulder blades and has prescribed steroids. Could this be Intervertebral Disc Disease (IVD) despite the lack of pain, and what are the next steps if the steroids do not help?

Hi, I have a 4-year-old Sheltie named Sadie. She went to the vet last Tuesday for vomiting and diarrhea and received an antibiotic shot, a pain shot, and a shot to stop vomiting. Two days ago, I noticed a large lump between her shoulders where the shots were given. The vet said it could be an irritation from the injections and might take 3-6 weeks to go away. Sadie has never had this happen before with other shots. Could this be an allergy to one of the shots? What should I do?

I have a 5-month-old Chihuahua. His penis has been protruding so far that it looks like his 'balls' are also out. He sits still and I've been using a cool rag to help it go back in. Why is this happening and should he be seen?

We have a 11-year-old chihuahua. We put him in his crate at night and notice his blanket is damp/wet in the morning. It doesn't smell like pee but has a weird smell and is very damp all over, similar to human night sweats. Could this be night sweats in a dog and why would a dog sweat like that?
