My 2-year-old Bernese Mountain Dog, Bernie, has been eating very little for 9 days, refusing breakfast but eating some dinner, and occasionally cheese and apples. He seems slightly more tired than usual, but not in pain. He has been licking his genital/anus region more frequently. I took him to the vet who found him healthy, negative for heartworms, tick-borne diseases, and parasites, and prescribed an appetite stimulant. Despite this, he still refuses to eat much. What could be causing his lack of appetite and what additional steps should I take?

My 4-year-old pit bull, Miska, began acting strangely by growling and barking threateningly at my wife and me when we tried to pet her while she was eating. This behavior is out of character for her, as she has always been affectionate and even sleeps in our bed. What could be causing this sudden aggression, and what steps should we take to address it?

My 1-year-old pitbull mix named Winston has a rash that has been pink since we adopted him two weeks ago. He recently got neutered around 3 weeks ago and seems itchy everywhere. He scratches occasionally and licks the affected area a lot. He has flea prevention and a soresto collar. He was prescribed carprofen a week ago but I just started him on it today. What could be causing the rash and what should I do?

My Siberian Husky, who is almost two years old, has a spot on her eye that has been growing for several weeks. It started very small but has increased in size, and the white of the eye is also red/pink. She doesn't seem bothered by it or in pain. What could this be, and should I treat it?

My dog, Waylon, a 3-year-old, 38-pound dog, ate a very small amount of human poop 15 minutes ago. He has never done this before and is generally very healthy, except for an ongoing ear infection. What should I do?

My dog, Nella, a 3-year-old 22-pound dog, may have ingested an unknown amount of regular strength Advil between 11am and 4:30pm today while I was at work. She has shown no symptoms so far. What should I do, and how soon would symptoms appear if she did ingest the Advil?
