My dog, Pepper, is 12 years old and has been taking Apoquel for itching but recently started taking a GrassSaver supplement. Now she's miserable again despite the Apoquel. She last saw a vet a year ago and is not on any other medications. What could be causing her itchiness and what can I do to help her?

I live on the second floor and my labrador puppy, Kaya, needs to climb stairs twice a day for walks. I'm concerned about hip dysplasia and read that stairs should be avoided until she's about 12 months old. Should I carry her up and down the stairs until she's too heavy, and are there any supplements to help prevent hip dysplasia? Additionally, Kaya has a white, gooey discharge from her vagina, especially after waking up or peeing. Is this normal for puppies and should I continue to clean her with scent-free wet wipes?

I have a multi-dog household where one of my dogs, who is 15 months old, has had a decreased appetite for the last 6 months. She is very defensive of her dinner and sometimes goes two to four days without eating. She is willing to eat cat food but refuses her own dog food. What could be causing this behavior and is it harmful for her to skip meals?

Marley, a 3-year-old Maltipoo, has been experiencing irregular urination, including instances where he cocks his leg but nothing comes out. He has been eating, sleeping, and playing normally, and is not in pain. He was last seen by a vet for a heartworm and fecal test, nail clipping, and gland expression last week, and for conjunctivitis about six months ago. What could be causing this issue, and what should be done to address it?

My dog, Buster, who is 9 years old and has a history of seizures, was diagnosed with glaucoma 2 months ago and has been on dorzolamide drops. I stopped giving him the drops yesterday because he keeps rubbing his eyes, and today his eyes are red all around them. He is also laying around more than usual. What can I do for him until I see his doctor tomorrow?
