My dog was bred 2 weeks ago. Prior to breeding, I had dewormed her and used flea treatment. I want to avoid any sprays, even natural ones. Do you use one clove of garlic in the food? I normally use Ivomec for heartworm and other worms but never when they are pregnant. What can I worm her with that won't harm the pups? Would the previous flea and worming treatment affect conception or embryo development?

My dog Blue, who is almost 1 year old and spends most of his day outside, started vomiting clear mucus and seemed disoriented and unable to stand. He has also developed a bump on his back leg that looks like a raised mole. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?

Dear Dr. Elizabeth, I hope you received my last mail. If I should do anything more to ensure you get the amount you are supposed to, please advise. Thanks for your help. Charles Reid

I have a seven-year-old Bichon that started vomiting and having very loose stool on Friday. She is still playing but gets tired quickly. Is there anything I can give her?

My Pekingese dog was straining while eliminating his bowels at the dog park, and I found a golf-ball size amount of feces entangled in his fur. After cleaning him, his anus is still pink, red, and enlarged. His behavior is normal, but I'm concerned if this is due to straining or if it requires veterinary attention.
