My 13-year-old dachshund, Buddy, has been lethargic for 2 days with an enlarged liver, elevated liver enzymes, and a high fever of 105°F. He was given subcutaneous fluids, a fever shot, and amoxicillin/clavulanate. His appetite has decreased, and he hasn't had any stools today, only urination. What could be causing his symptoms, and what should I monitor or do to help him feel better?

My dog, Chance, a 5-year-old pitbull weighing 60-70 lbs, ate a THC edible. I'm unsure of the dosage and how long ago it happened. He's currently breathing and walking fine, but he seems off—sleepy, flinching when petted, and a bit wobbly. What should I do, and what signs should I look for to ensure he's okay?

My dog has kidney failure and was prescribed Hills kidney care food along with liquid meds. She initially ate the dry food but now refuses to eat it or any other dog food, except for chicken and brown rice I cook for her. Can I mix the dry food with chicken and rice to encourage her to eat the kidney care food, or do you have any other recommendations?

My 6-month-old dog, Rum, has a red bump on his belly that has been growing since he was 5 months old. He has been scratching his back due to fleas, but I don't think he's been messing with the bump. What could this bump be, and should I take him to the vet?
