My dachshund, Farmer, who is 12 years old, has swelling above and below his eye since Thursday afternoon. The swelling seems to itch and looks fluidy.

I was filling my husband's pill case and one of his 50 mg tablets of Trazodone fell on the floor. Our 20-pound Australian Terrier might have eaten it but I can't be sure. What will happen if he did?

If you were to hypothetically match an American Pit Bull Terrier with an English Mastiff, who would hypothetically have the upper hand? The APBT has incredible strength, agility, and tenacity, while the English Mastiff has incredible size and sheer body bulk.

My mom, who was a respected breeder, told me that salami is harmful for dogs due to its high fat content and can potentially shut down their kidneys if ingested in large amounts. I found my 3-year-old, 10 lb female poodle eating salami in the garage. Should I be concerned, and is there anything I should or shouldn't do?

My Great Dane has 10 puppies and her teats are breaking out in reddish spots, likely from the sharp puppy claws. Is it okay to use Vetericyn or Tropiclean Oxymed anti-itch spray on her, and how should I address her chin area which is bleeding slightly when she rubs it on carpets or towels?

My dog keeps biting his butt/tail, seems uncomfortable, and is very clingy. He also asks to go out to pee every hour, but won't pee in his crate. He just turned 1 year old and has been like this since he was 8 weeks old. What could be causing these issues and what should I do?
