My 3.5-year-old spayed pitbull, Devane, is aggressive only towards my boyfriend. She attacked him for no apparent reason. I first noticed this aggression about 6 months ago, and it happens only sometimes. I've tried calming talks and putting her in her kennel, but nothing seems to help. What can be done to address this aggression?

My dog, Thumper, an 11-year-old, has a hole in the skin above his leg, is in pain, moving slower, and has lost his appetite. How soon should I find a vet to fix the hole, or will it heal on its own?

My geriatric 5 lb, 16.5-year-old Maltese/Shih Tzu mix is on seizure medication and gabapentin for doggie dementia. She has been acting very agitated, starving, and stumbling for about 1.5 hours after receiving her usual dose of gabapentin. Is there anything I can do for her? Should I give her another 0.5 ml of the gabapentin suspension?

My 12-year-old Chihuahua is breathing heavily while resting, coughing as if choking, and wheezing. He has had this cough for about 6 months, progressively getting worse but subsiding at times. There have been no recent changes in his environment or exposure to irritants. What can we do?

I gave my 7-month-old Husky/Lab mix puppy, Blondie, a half cup of cooked cauliflower with water about half an hour after her regular supper of dry puppy food. I wanted to give her turmeric but was concerned about the root, extract, and other ingredients. Should I give her a 500 mg turmeric capsule, and if so, should it be less or not at all?
