My 9-year-old foster dog is suddenly losing clumps of fur. He is a male, mostly yellow lab with some shepherd markings. He has seemed fine for the past 3-4 weeks, but recently, I noticed a significant amount of hair loss after petting him. I gave him a bath, which seemed to exacerbate the shedding. His temperament is fine, he's happy, walking well, eating, and we provide healthy, all-natural food and veterinary-recommended shampoos. What could be causing this sudden shedding, and what should I do?

The sudden shedding in your foster dog could be due to normal seasonal shedding, especially for dogs...

Our lab and newfie mix (82 lbs.) just ate about 10 Lindt milk chocolate with vanilla cream truffles, wrapper and all. He is on Rx food for severe pancreatitis. Should we induce vomiting?

My Schnoodle dog has experienced erratic jerking lasting nearly an hour twice in the last four nights, both times in the middle of the night. Her legs do not jerk, just her body. She has no other symptoms. What could be causing this and what should I do?

I have a 10-month-old golden doodle who reacts to snow on his face by having his third eyelid come across, especially in one eye. He has environmental allergies and will be tested in the spring. What could be causing this reaction and what can I do to manage it?

My 12-year-old spayed Catahoula Cur dog, Missy, is urinating more frequently than usual and has a reddish eye. She is not acting abnormally and is not in pain, but I'm concerned about her age and kidneys. What could be causing this and what should I do?
