My 9-year-old beagle/poodle cross, Kit n'Kaboodle, has been very lethargic, with a temperature of 98.6°F (measured with an ear thermometer), off food, and had some diarrhea and bright yellow vomiting.

My dog, Tiggy, had surgery on Tuesday night to remove her gallbladder and uterus. Since the surgery, she has been vomiting water, drinking a lot of water, and not interested in food. She was eating when we visited her after surgery but now refuses food at home. She has been taking antibiotics and anti-nausea pills. Should I take her to the emergency clinic where the surgery was performed, as the specialists are closed on weekends, or is there anything we can do at home?

My 11-year-old 15 lb cockapoo with Cushing's disease was put on 25mg of Trilostane a few months ago. She has become lethargic, struggles to get up, and seems to have aged significantly. The vet suggested starting her on prednisone 5mg for 7 days, then decreasing to half a tablet every other day. I am concerned about her blood levels and the safety of combining these medications. What are the potential risks and alternative treatments for her condition?
