My 7-year-old German Shepherd had to get her anal sacs expressed last week, which she has never had a problem with before. The vet prescribed Clindamycin, Ketoconazole, and Atopica, but since starting these medications, she has become sicker, showing symptoms like vomiting, diarrhea, and lethargy. I am concerned about the appropriateness of these medications and whether they are typical for treating anal sac issues. Should I stop giving her the medicine, and what should I do next?

My dog, Lola, a 2-year-old lab/boxer mix, is squatting to pee constantly and whining. I think she might have a urinary tract infection. What should I do?

My dog Ernie, who is 5 months old and weighs 21.8 lbs, has red eyes and keeps rubbing them. He was whining in his crate earlier than usual, sneezing, and showing signs of an allergic reaction. He had a second round of distemper vaccine yesterday but didn't have any side effects after the first one. Is this normal to have a reaction to a second round of shots even though he was fine after the first one?

My dog, Xena, a 3-year-old with IBD who takes prednisolone 10mg every other day, was playing with another dog and developed a limp in her back legs. She is stiff and her back right leg shakes when she gets up. What could be causing this and what should I do to help her recover?
