My Labrador named Toast, who is one year old, has a circular reddish bump about the size of a quarter on her muzzle. The bump was first noticed on Sunday and has not changed since then. Toast is acting normally and the bump does not seem to bother her. What could this bump be and is there anything I should do about it?

I am taking care of my daughter's dog, Bezi, who is 5 years old. He was attacked by another dog and had surgery to repair a ripped skin on his thigh and has several puncture wounds. He is currently wearing a cone and taking 100 mg Trazadone 2x per day, 500 mg Carprofen 2x per day, and 375 mg Amoxicillin Clavulanate 2x per day. After 3 days, he has started shaking his head violently. I'm unsure if this is due to the cone or the medication. What should I do?

We have a 7-month-old mixed-breed rescue dog named Louie who has had loose bowels for 4.5 months despite trying various treatments, including metronidazole, Simplicef, and Proviable Forte sprinkle. His bowel movements return to being loose or watery when these treatments are stopped. He is also on a prescription diet (HillsFarm Digestive Care i/d). What could be causing this issue and are there any alternative treatments, including herbal or natural remedies, that could help?

My 40 lb dog chewed on a Tomcat rat poison box containing 0.01% bromethalin. I'm concerned about potential toxicity, especially since she didn't vomit and I'm unsure if she ingested any of the poison. What should I do?
