My cocker spaniel, Shaina, has been acting unusually withdrawn and anti-social. She's been off her food for a few days, seems thirsty but won't drink water, and has been lip licking. She also tried to hide and was hesitant to climb stairs. What could be causing this behavior and what should I do?

Shaina's behavior suggests she is feeling generally unwell, possibly due to a gastrointestinal upset...

My 12-year-old Boston terrier suddenly started walking sideways, fell over, and then seemed fine after a few minutes. Her eyes seemed glazed over but pupils were not dilated. Do I need to take her to the ER vet now or can I wait and take her to her regular vet on Monday?

My dog slipped and made a loud sound after a walk in the rain. He seemed stunned and favored his right leg for a moment, but then ran around and ate a treat. He later sat on the couch shaking slightly, but now seems calm. Should I be concerned about a head injury, and what signs should I watch for?

I accidentally gave my Akita Atopica one day early. Should I resume the Atopica on the 5th day to get back to the proper 4-day schedule, and is it okay to give the prednisolone for two days in a row to get back to the correct schedule?

My 11-year-old female collie has been experiencing uncontrollable urination for over a year, with a recent resurgence. Her kidneys do not produce concentrated urine, only almost pure water. What could be causing this and what tests or treatments should be considered?

I have a senior dog scheduled for at-home euthanasia on Friday. My roommate gave him a 200mg Aleve 30 minutes ago, and I'm concerned about potential side effects. What should I do to minimize discomfort, and what signs should I look for regarding stomach ulcers?
