I have a Lhasa Apso/Pomeranian mix named Sophie, who is 3 years old. My son accidentally tripped over her while playing, causing her to collapse with her eyes rolled back and tongue hanging out for about a minute. She recovered but has been quieter than usual since then. My son suspects he may have bruised her ribs, as her breathing was labored last night but seems fine today. She is due for her physical at the end of the month. Should I take her in for her physical now?

RED, RAW NOSE

January 20th, 2024

My dog has been licking a spot under her tail, making it red and raw. She has also done this to her front leg before, where the fur has not grown back and the skin is black. I am concerned and need to find a solution.

My Chihuahua was attacked by a large German Shepherd and has a slight cut on the outside corner of his eye. It is bleeding slightly and there is some blood from his eye watering onto his face. Should I take him to get checked out, even though he seems fine and can open his eye?

When entering a dog park, my dog becomes aggressive for the first 10 seconds with dogs she does not know. What are the exact circumstances where this aggression occurs, and does it happen when she is crowded by other dogs upon entering the park, or even after she has moved into a more open area and is interacting with dogs one on one?
