I have an 11-month-old Doberman Belgian Shepherd mix named Apollo. He has been showing signs of ataxia, such as falling over while sitting, despite not being sleepy. This was first noticed tonight. His appetite and stool have not changed, and he has been on pain meds and anti-inflammatory meds for a leg issue. He recently went on new walks where he ate some mud. What could be causing his ataxia and what should I do?

My Chihuahua/Miniature Pinscher, Cassie, has been shaking her head and unable to keep her foot out of her ear for weeks. I've been applying otic medications but there's no relief, and she's suffering. What should I do?

Our labradoodle, Mac, is just shy of 6 months old and has an ear infection. He has been acting off for a few days, his ears are sore to touch, he’s been itching them, and there is a lot of brown discharge with a bad smell. We have not spoken to a vet yet, and we have another 4 weeks before we can get into our local veterinary. What should we do in the meantime?

My puppy, Lala, is squirting out bright red blood from her butt, making noises while sleeping, and has been weak for 3 days. She has lost a lot of weight, does not eat or drink, and the blood initially smells like poop but then has a strong blood odor. What could be the issue and what should I do?

My dog, Lulu, is 10 years old and gets extremely anxious during thunderstorms, scratching the door so badly that she bleeds and experiences shortness of breath. There is no cough, and this only happens during thunderstorms when she is left alone. What can be done to help her?
