I think my dog, Paco, has a fever and I gave him children's ibuprofen. Is that okay, or should I change the medication? Paco is 2 years old, weighs 6 lbs, and had diarrhea at midnight. He feels warm but his gums are normal, and he eats and drinks water.

My yellow lab, Mazzie, has developed a black rash on her thigh from licking and something similar around her eyes. She has really itchy skin, and I feed her a grain-free, salmon-based diet. I have used Curaseb wipes and ointments like sulfoddrne and bag balm, but they don't go away. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My Pomeranian has just had puppies, and I am worried that they may not be sucking properly as I lost my last puppy because it would not feed. Before she had the last ones, the mother developed a cough, but it went away after giving birth. I went to the vet, but the puppy still died, so I am worried this time.

I am babysitting a friend's dog named Bear who has had yellow diarrhea for 2 days, occurring 3 times. This is the first time he has been away from his owners. Should I be concerned about stress as a possible cause, and should I take him to a vet?

My Chihuahua, Noelle, who will be 13 years old on December 25, 2018, has loose brown stool and sometimes almost purple in color. She also seems very unhappy in her current living situation. She lives with a standard poodle and a hairy puili, both of which are much bigger than she is. What could be causing her symptoms and what should I do?

My miniature horse is in labor and has been all day. Some fluid has come out and there is red stuff hanging out of her vulva. What should I do? We did not know she was pregnant.
