My 10-year-old male dog has an infection in the gums area with occasional bleeding in 1 or 2 spots. I started giving him 500 mg of amoxicillin per day (he weighs 55 lbs). How long should I continue this dose (7-10 days?) and should I have started the first couple of days with more mg?

I have a four-year-old male Labrador named Champ. He hasn't been eating for the past four days, is inactive, has weak limbs, and seems very sick. Last year's injections were in June 2016. Can you assist with a diagnosis?

My 10-year-old golden retriever with IMHA on heavy immune suppressant drugs ate his bowel movement that had been outside for several hours. I'm concerned about potential bacterial infection due to his compromised immune system. Is there anything I can do to prevent this or should I rush him to the ER?

My dog got a dexamethasone 4mg shot on Tuesday 2/11 for his hips, and it seemed to help a little. However, on Thursday 2/13, he started vomiting hours after eating, even though he acts hungry and eats his food fine. Is this a side effect of the shot, and would it take 2 days to affect him this way?

Our dog is bleeding and we cannot determine if he has vomited the blood or where it is dripping from in his mouth. He is a big rough collie and often catches a ball, so we suspect it might be a tooth issue. What could be causing the bleeding, and what steps should we take to address it?

I found a small red bump on my dog's stomach. It appeared a few days ago and does not seem to bother her. What could this bump be, and what steps should I take to determine its nature?
