We are leaving for Canada soon and need proof of rabies vaccination for our dog. We are unsure if our dog is due for the vaccination and our vet will be closed for the next 5 days. Is it okay to go to another clinic to get the vaccination if we are unsure of the last vaccination date? Additionally, we have documentation for proof of vaccination, but it is not signed by the vet. Will this be an issue at the border?

My dog, Peaches, has been throwing up since yesterday and looks like she is drugged up with a slightly swollen stomach. The vomit contains brown food in a ball. She may have eaten something unusual, possibly from deer hunting leftovers on our 22-acre property. What should I do?

Chloe, a 12-year-old dog with multiple allergies, has an ear infection causing her ear canal to swell, making it difficult to administer prescribed ear cleaner and suspension droplets. The infection appears white and gooey (possibly yeast). In the past, veterinarians prescribed doggy Tylenol and anti-inflammatory medicine, but the recent vet did not recommend these. What can be done to help soothe Chloe's discomfort and manage her ear infection until her next vet appointment in a week?

My ten-year-old lab-mix, Goldie, has not eaten since last night, has been sedentary since 5pm, and has dry-heaved a few times. My husband thinks she has bloat, but could it be something else since she hasn't eaten in 24 hours? What should I look for and what can I do to help her?
