My dog has a nodule on the side of her front paw that was aspirated to check for Mast Cell Tumors (MCT). The vet found some cells and blood during the aspiration. What should I know about MCTs and what are the next steps for diagnosis and potential treatment?

My 6.5-year-old Pomeranian, Pixie, is experiencing reverse sneezing and has a stuffy nose. Her energy level and appetite are normal, and she sometimes sneezes normally after reverse sneezing. Any mucus that comes out is clear. What could be causing this and what can I do to help her?

I have a 3-month-old bully named Ghost who hasn't eaten since getting his shots two days ago. He has watery diarrhea and has noticeably lost weight. His gums are pale, and he has been drinking some water but also receiving unflavored Pedialyte via a dropper. I've tried giving him white rice and tuna in water, but he won't eat. Could this be related to the shots, and what should I do?

My French bulldog has been feeling lethargic, not eating much, and throwing up for almost a week. She has skin allergies and is being treated for that. Recently, she broke out in what appears to be folliculitis on her belly and hind area, causing her to rub against the rug. Her energy has picked up today, and she is eating and drinking more water. Can I give her an antihistamine pill (25 mg) tonight to help her be comfortable until I can get her to the vet tomorrow afternoon?
