Our 7-year-old Yorkie, Terry, has diabetes, is blind from cataracts, and has been vomiting today. He won't eat or drink anything, is having difficulty breathing, and is weak and wobbly on his feet. We have an appointment with our vet on Monday, but he has become much worse in the last couple of hours. What should we do?

I rescued a dog named Casey, who is 1.5 years old and has anxiety that manifests as aggression towards men and other dogs, but she is good with kids and most women. The anxiety occurs all the time, with some triggers like power tools worsening her condition. I have tried store-bought anxiety chews, a Thundershirt, and an Adaptil collar, but they have had little effect. I also went to a trainer who focused on basic obedience rather than addressing her aggression. What are the best ways to treat her anxiety, and what type of trainer should I seek out?

My dog was in a fight with a pit bull and now has a bite on his side that smells funny. He is still moving around but walks with a limp slightly. What can I do about the smell at home? Should I use antibiotics like Amoxicillin Trihydrate and Clavulanate Potassium Tablets?
