My 5-pound, 11-year-old Yorkie named Cassie has a collapsed trachea and experiences coughing and gas when picked up, which compresses her stomach. She has been dealing with this for several years and has seen multiple vets, including the Bush Clinic in Richmond. She has been diagnosed with congestive heart failure but was later cleared of a heart murmur by Virginia Tech. She is currently taking zonisamide twice a day to prevent seizures, benedryl, cough tabs, hydrocodone, and prednisone for her cough, and hound honey four times daily. What should I know about managing her collapsed trachea and her current medications?

My dog, Pepper, had surgery to remove her uterus and had to go back to have her stitches redone due to bleeding. Since then, she has been bleeding and leaking a clearish yellow fluid from the incision. She is 11 years old and weighs 21 pounds. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My dog Shiloh has been coughing for 2 weeks and has difficulty breathing. A vet diagnosed him with a lung tumor, but I'm skeptical as he seemed healthy before. What could be causing his symptoms and what can be done to help him?

My dog Moose, aged 3 years, is lethargic and has vomited white foamy substance with minimal food. He might have eaten something unusual while outside. Should I take him to a vet immediately?

My white Mini Schnauzer, Molly, is licking her front legs excessively, turning them brown. This started about a month ago when I was away overnight with a sitter. Molly has known allergies and is treated with cytopoint injections. She also has storm anxiety. How do I get her to stop licking and remove the brown stains?
