My service dog, Kelsey, has been experiencing frequent sneezing attacks. She is not exposed to foxtails or much in the yard, has a good nose and gums, normal eating and other body functions, and receives monthly Cytopoint shots. She has been given the allowed amount of Benadryl and is in a good mood. What else can I do for her until I can get her to the vet tomorrow?

My dog, Hope, who is 16 years old and blind due to glaucoma, barks constantly, especially at night. She also seems unhappy, jumpy, paces in circles, and snaps when touched. What can be done to help her, and should I consider euthanasia?

My dog, Quincy, has an infected cut on his ear that has become swollen. He cut his ear a few days ago during a fight with his brother. The area feels like a bump, and he flinches at any touch. The cut is in the middle of his ear, and it is swollen within the flap of the ear. What should I do?

My dog’s ears are always inflamed and loaded with foul odor wax. It’s very difficult to clean them because he seems so bothered. The problem’s been chronic for several years with no changes to diet. He’s also prone to pimple-like boils. What could be causing this and what can be done to help?
