My 10-month-old female Pit Bull was spayed a week ago. She had a minor skin infection on her neck, was on antibiotics, and her incision is healing well. However, she has developed a thick, yellowish vaginal discharge that has worsened over the past two days. Could this be related to her spaying, and what should I do?

My 9-week-old beagle, Sarah, has runny, black/red stools. I've had her for two weeks and was changing her food, combining old with new. There was some mucous yesterday, but now it's just runny and appears black, turning rusty red when cleaned up. She's still active and playful. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My dachshund has an issue with her esophagus where food does not pass into her stomach and comes back up, leading to emaciation. The vet diagnosed megaesophagus and said there's nothing he can do. What can be done to help her?

My dog had her teeth cleaned today and has been restless and whining since I got her home. She seemed groggy during the car ride home but not since we arrived at the house. She's been under anesthesia before and had a teeth cleaning once before as well as being spayed. She did eat dinner, drink water, and go potty, but she's just pacing and whining. What could be causing this behavior, and should I be concerned about her being in pain?

My dog has been diagnosed with mild pancreatitis and has been treated by multiple specialists and general practice vets, including bloodwork and ultrasounds. She has a cyst on her pancreas and has had chronic pancreatitis since November. She is currently on prednisone for what was assumed to be a flare-up of meningitis, but she is still not improving and is very picky with food and has loose stools. Should a mild case of pancreatitis be causing this much trouble, and what else can be done to help her recover?
