My 5 lbs, 3.5-month-old Malti-Poo got into a sample of my eczema medicine, Cloderm (clocortolone pivalate) cream, 0.1%. The tube contained 1.0 mg of clocortolone pivalate per gram, in a water-washable emollient cream base. There was not a lot left in the sample, and it had many teeth marks. Do I need to worry about him, and is there anything I need to do?

My dog has a dry cough that hasn't been resolved by multiple visits to different vets, various medications, or X-rays. The cough is only noticeable when the dog is resting or sleeping, and one vet suggested it might be due to a flap hanging up in the throat. What could be causing this persistent cough, and what further steps can be taken to diagnose and treat it?

Is it possible my young street dog only had one ovary or was this a botched spay?

My 9-year-old beagle/poodle cross, Kit n'Kaboodle, has been very lethargic, with a temperature of 98.6°F (measured with an ear thermometer), off food, and had some diarrhea and bright yellow vomiting. He was recently treated for ehrlichiosis, Lyme disease, and anaplasmosis. What could be causing his lethargy and what should I do?

I have a 12-year-old Rot/Lab mix dog who is 100 lbs and arthritic. She has been moving slower and is very lethargic. I can't take her to the vet due to her size. Her toenails are very long, and I'm afraid to cut them. Could her long toenails affect her activity and arthritis? Is there anything I can do to make her more comfortable?

My dog has just eaten a Carbamazepine 100mg tablet meant for humans. His behavior is normal at the moment, but is there anything I should do?
