My 11-year-old dachshund, Hydie, has been suffering from red itchy spots that develop into scabs for the last year and a half. She has been treated with injections, Viaderm-K-C, and a special diet, but the condition is worsening, especially around her vulva. She is also licking and rubbing the affected areas. What additional treatments or suggestions do you have for managing her condition?

My dog, Oso, a Newfie/Lab mix around 9 or 10 years old, has been experiencing frequent diarrhea, waking up several times at night to go, and has had a loss of appetite and increased sleepiness for several days. He has not shown any signs of pain and has not vomited since Sunday. What could be causing this and what steps can I take to help him?

My friend's 5-year-old pug, Weenie, licked a small amount of guacamole containing onions, garlic, and pectin. I'm concerned about potential toxicity. Should I monitor him, and if so, what symptoms should I watch for and for how long?

My dog chewed up wax melts containing beeswax, food-grade paraffin, and coconut. The dog is a 7-month-old, 40-pound boxer named Titan. He ate about three or four wax melts, and I found crumbs and big chunks on the floor. He has eaten and gone to the bathroom since then, and he's acting normal. Should I be concerned about his health?

My dog, Molly, a 3-year-and-4-month-old 60-pound dog, just ate around 15 grapes a few minutes ago. She has not vomited and is in good health with no known disease conditions. What should I do about this, and is she at risk?
