My 4-month-old King Shepherd has had diarrhea for about 5 days. My vet advised me to provide a stool sample, but they haven't responded yet, and they didn't perform an exam. My puppy has since become lethargic, isn't eating much, and has developed a limp without any apparent reason. Should I wait until my vet is available in 2 more days or take him to an emergency vet?

My dog has been on two different steroids along with Benadryl daily for months and shows no improvement in licking and itching. I've also tried switching dog foods. What else can be done?

Hi, I have a 6-year-old pitbull with a large, deep gash. I'm wondering if human triple antibiotic ointment can help alleviate pain and prevent infection, and whether I should wrap the wound or let it dry. What can I do in the meantime until I can afford professional care?
