I have a black 14-pound toy poodle who was diagnosed with diabetes in November 2022 and has collapsing trachea. He is prone to overheating in the summer and has severe allergies that cause excessive licking and itching. He is on Novalin N insulin and has been through food allergy testing. What can I do to help him stay cool, and is it safe to give him human Zyrtec or Benadryl for his allergies, considering his diabetes? Additionally, he has started making a honking sound and itching his ears and paws more frequently. Could this be related to his allergies or trachea, and is there a specific antihistamine that works better for dogs?

My dog had a small tremor seizure earlier in the day and then experienced a more severe seizure at night. This is the first time we've seen this with him. He turns ten this week. Could debris from the pool, possibly containing chlorine, have caused these seizures? Should we monitor him overnight or take him to the ER vet tonight? Could the earlier tremors be a warning sign?

My dog, Pita, cut the inside of her gums while playing fetch. She is lethargic, has been since the incident a couple of hours ago, and has only eaten a small piece of cheese. She was bleeding from her mouth but is not currently. She coughed a bit as if the blood was dripping into her throat. What should I do?
