My 13-year-old miniature schnauzer, Tuck, has IBD and is successfully treated with a Royal Canin PV diet, 100 mg of metronidazole, and previously mesalamine. Potassium citrate was added to his diet two months ago to treat bladder stones, which has been successful so far. However, he has stopped eating for the past 2-3 days and has vomited orange bile twice in the last day. He has also become lethargic in the past several days. The local vet suggested an ultrasound of his liver. Have any blood tests been done that make liver disease suspicious?

My 6-year-old Shih Tzu has Cushing's disease. Will he eventually die from this? He can't walk very well, go out the dog door, or jump on the sofa. Should I put him down? Help.

My dog, Bella, a 4-year-old Maltese, is panting, hiding, pacing, and not wanting to lay down or be held. She is not showing any signs of a wound, vomiting, diarrhea, or trouble with stairs, but she is acting very unsettled. What could be causing this behavior?
