My 15 and a half year old dog, Angie, was just diagnosed with pancreatitis and kidney failure. She has poor appetite and won't eat prescribed food. She is scheduled to be put to sleep tomorrow. I am feeling sad about this decision but think it is time. I am 83 and Angie was adopted from Pet Smart at one and a half. I need assurance that I am doing the right thing.

My 12-week-old feist puppy, Duke, received the Canine Spectra 9 vaccine a few hours ago and is now shaking, in pain when handled, and has a fever. He has been eating and drinking normally, and had normal urine and stool movements. Is this a normal reaction to the vaccine, and what should I do?

My dog's tail got caught in the door and was broken off. There's something long that came out with it, and I'm worried it might be nerve-related. What should I do for immediate care, and should I take her to the vet in the morning?

My dog, Bonnie, a 1-year-4-month-old Bichon Shih Tzu cross weighing about 15 pounds, fell off a 3-foot counter about 15-20 minutes ago. She didn't yelp but seems scared and sleepy. Her appetite is fine, and she responded to food. What should I look out for in terms of possible injuries, and how should I monitor her condition?
