My 12-year-old male Boxer, Baine, is experiencing involuntary twitches/muscle spasms in his rear leg, making it difficult for him to walk without his legs splaying out and causing him to fall or stumble. He also appears to be scratching his leg even when he seems to be sleeping. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?

Hello, my 13-pound dog ate a mini Snickers. Do I have to take him to the vet?

My 13 lb dog, Foxy, a 2-year-old, may have ingested silicone from chewing on wrist bands. She isn't displaying any unusual behavior. What should I do?

My dog, Lucy, age 6, refuses to eat in the mornings, leading to hypoglycemia and nausea for the rest of the day. She eats dinner at night and is fine until the next morning. I suspect a GI issue or behavioral problem. She is otherwise healthy and acts normally, but has lost some weight due to eating only once a day. What could be causing this and what should I do?

I dropped two pills of Allegra 180mg and can’t find them. I doubt she ate them as they would taste terrible, but still concerned. The dog is a 20 lb Yorkie-poo. What should I do?

Initially, I thought my 10-year-old Airedale, Dexter, had a tick on his ear. By bedtime, we noticed a large thing attached to his ear where it meets his head. We tried removing it but it started to bleed, so we applied IPA. A neighbor suggested it could be a blood blister. Dexter was groomed recently and had no ticks or noticeable bumps then. He also gets monthly flea and tick preventative meds and takes Tramadol and Carbomethal for degenerative spine issues. What do you think it is and how can we treat it?
