My Doberman has an open sore on his foot that he keeps licking and chewing, preventing it from healing. I've tried various treatments, including bandages and a homemade cast, but he keeps removing them. I'm looking for a solution that will allow the sore to heal, such as a fiberglass cast or splint that he can't chew off. Do you have any suggestions or know where I can get such materials?

My Pekingese is not acting like himself lately. He is eating and drinking but doesn't seem happy, is sleeping a lot, not jumping on laps, and lagging behind on walks. I had to carry him the other day. What could be wrong and what should I check?

My dog was successfully treated for heartworms, but she has persistent fluid in her lungs despite being on various medications, including prednisone. What could be causing this and what else can be done to address it?

My dog ate half of a birth control pill (Nordette 28) that fell on the floor. He is a 6-pound Japanese Chin. Should I contact my vet, or should I try to make him vomit to recover the tablet? I'm worried about potential side effects and the safety of inducing vomiting.

My Pomeranian male has once a month blood in the urine and experiences discomfort every 2-4 months, which resolves within 24 hours. He is on a raw food diet by Celestial Pets with occasional organic quinoa treats. I am considering adding raw apple cider vinegar and yogurt to his food. What can I do to clear this up and prevent worsening of his condition?

My 12-week-old puppy jumped out of the back of my SUV today and now has a 'goose egg' on her back hip. Could this be a bruise or a lump I haven't seen before? Should I take her to the vet?
