My 8-month-old Boxer, Bingo, goes for my 5-year-oldās hands and feet with his mouth when he wants her to play. He doesnāt realize his size and she gets knocked down and starts crying. We have gone to dog training and heās generally a good dog, but this is the only issue we have. Itās like play biting for attention and maybe a bit of oral fixation. Any ideas what we can do?

The behavior you're describing is typical of a dog reaching sexual maturity around 6-8 months of age...

I have a 10-week-old foster puppy named Willa who is breathing rapidly. She was playing hard and has been breathing fast for over 45 minutes. Her chest is moving rapidly, and she feels a bit warm under her arms and belly. What could be causing this and what should I do?

Our black lab, Bruno, a 7-month-old weighing 58 lbs, ate a 10 mg Lexapro pill just two minutes ago. He is acting perfectly fine and has not vomited. What should we do?

My three-year-old golden retriever occasionally hacks as if something is stuck in her throat, does this 2-3 times in a row and then stops. This happens out of the blue and not regularly. Should I be worried about this behavior, and is it normal for dogs to do this?

My 6-year-old Schnauzer, Rudy, has been constipated for 3 days and looks distressed. He has tried yogurt but is not eating and occasionally yelps. He also rubs his bottom on the ground. Should I take him to an emergency clinic tonight or can it wait until his regular vet is open tomorrow morning?
