My 2-year-old female Great Pyrenees, Roxy, has been sick and not eating since December 8th. She vomited bile, foamed at the mouth, and has been lethargic. She shared food and water with a puppy who had diarrhea, and later, my other dogs were treated for tapeworm. Roxy has had little to eat or drink, and the vet has treated her for nausea and dehydration. What could be causing her symptoms, and what should I do next?

My 65-pound mixed breed dog has redness and a split nail on her paw, with the area between her toes being red and tender. Can I give her human penicillin and wash her paw with hydrogen peroxide? A $100 vet visit is not an option this week.

My dog keeps getting his legs hurt by jumping fences. I keep securing the fences but he finds a way through and jumps over or through. I don't know for a fact this is the problem I am making an educated guess. How should I stabilize his leg so it can heal?

My brother's 7-year-old spayed female Chihuahua is unable to use the legs on her right side without pain. The vet suspects a spinal issue between the base of the neck and shoulder blades and has prescribed steroids. Could this be Intervertebral Disc Disease (IVD) despite the lack of pain, and what are the next steps if the steroids do not help?

Hi, I have a 4-year-old Sheltie named Sadie. She went to the vet last Tuesday for vomiting and diarrhea and received an antibiotic shot, a pain shot, and a shot to stop vomiting. Two days ago, I noticed a large lump between her shoulders where the shots were given. The vet said it could be an irritation from the injections and might take 3-6 weeks to go away. Sadie has never had this happen before with other shots. Could this be an allergy to one of the shots? What should I do?
