My dog, Kaili, a 4-year-old, has red areas on the inside of her ear flap that come and go. She doesn't seem to be in pain, but she rolls in dirt when outside, which might indicate itching. What could be causing this, and what should I do in the meantime before I can see a vet?

Our dog ate silly putty. I was just reading that it's not toxic but to look for signs of vomiting or diarrhea, possible blockage. Is that all correct? Additionally, we found the plastic shell of the silly putty but we can't find the putty. The dog is a large breed and weighs about 70 lbs. We're not sure how much she ate, assuming she ate the average size of what comes in the egg-shaped silly putties.

My elderly dog has a blood blister on the back of his leg that broke open and will not stop bleeding. We have applied pressure but it is still bleeding. The dog also has small blisters all over, which are common to his breed, a Greyhound.

My dog yelped loudly yesterday evening and has been excessively licking his inner legs since then. This morning, I found a bump on his head the size of a dime. What could have happened to the dog, and what should I do?

My dog ate at least one disposable hand wipe over the weekend and has been vomiting every night since then. She is 17 lbs and 11 years old. She has been eating and having regular bowel movements, but I'm concerned about potential gastrointestinal blockage. What should I do?
