My 7-year-old Bloodhound, Ruby, generally sheds all year. Recently, I noticed 2 patches of loose hair which I pulled out, leaving dry patches of skin underneath. She will get a bath tomorrow. Ruby almost died 4 years ago due to an unknown cause, possibly a reaction to a tick bite. She has ear problems and food allergies. What should I be aware of and what steps should I take regarding her skin condition?

Hi, I have a 14-year-old dachshund named Sammy. He has been dealing with what we think is an upper respiratory infection and just finished a round of antibiotics with some improvement. However, he has also started showing shallow breathing, tremors, and spontaneous flatulence, which are unusual for him. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?

My Chihuahua, Tinkerbell, is experiencing symptoms that seem like HGE (Hemorrhagic Gastroenteritis). She is pooping jelly-like stuff and I live in a very rural area where the nearest 24-hour vet is an hour and a half away. Will she make it until the morning when the local vet opens?
