My 11-year-old beagle, Sheldon, has epilepsy. He was seizure-free for a year on Keppra but started having seizures again after the dosage was reduced. The vet now wants to add potassium bromide to his treatment. I've heard there are newer medications available. What are your thoughts on the best treatment options for Sheldon, considering his age and potential side effects?

My friends smoked meth in my apartment while house-sitting, and my 10-month-old chiweenie, Buttercup, seems affected. She's hyper-aware, has dilated pupils, and is lethargic but eats and drinks. What should I do?

My dog Sky, a Yorki/Shih-tux mix, is 6 years old and pregnant. Her due date was yesterday, and she has been panting heavily since late evening. Her temperature dropped to 97.9 and is now 98.6. She has not shown any pushing or contractions, just heavy panting, restlessness, and nesting. Should she have given birth by now, and what should I be looking out for?

I found a large scab on my dog's neck and several smaller scabs on his front side. I initially thought he might have injured himself, but the scabs are healing. What could be causing these scabs, and what should I do to treat them?

My rescue dog, Geneva, ate one clove of cooked garlic. She is a 13-pound, 4 or 5-year-old dog. Will she be able to digest it, and is there anything else I should be aware of?

My 5-month-old dogs, Gibbs and June Bug, ate dinner around 6 but their bellies still look full. They aren’t acting any different and are sleeping. What should I be aware of?
