I rescued a dog named Casey, who is 1.5 years old and has anxiety that manifests as aggression towards men and other dogs, but she is good with kids and most women. The anxiety occurs all the time, with some triggers like power tools worsening her condition. I have tried store-bought anxiety chews, a Thundershirt, and an Adaptil collar, but they have had little effect. I also went to a trainer who focused on basic obedience rather than addressing her aggression. What are the best ways to treat her anxiety, and what type of trainer should I seek out?

My dog, Gizmo, a Shepoo, has a swollen eye and chin area. I noticed the swelling today, and he doesn't seem to have been bitten or stung. He is 8 years old and generally healthy. What could be causing this swelling, and what should I do for him?

My dog was in a fight with a pit bull and now has a bite on his side that smells funny. He is still moving around but walks with a limp slightly. What can I do about the smell at home? Should I use antibiotics like Amoxicillin Trihydrate and Clavulanate Potassium Tablets?

I have a 2-month-old puppy named Flower who became lethargic, vomited her food, and showed signs of discomfort after being outside in the cold. She now has difficulty walking, opening her eyes, and is throwing up foamy or yellow liquid. Her stools are solid. What could be wrong with her and what should I do?
