My 12-year-old dog, Drama, was diagnosed with a UTI and prescribed Clavamox 375mg chewable tablets. However, he is difficult to medicate and has shown signs of lethargy, not eating, and whining. How dangerous is a UTI for dogs, what other problems can arise from it, what symptoms should I look for, and could he be having a reaction to the antibiotics?

My sister has a 1-year-old rescue puppy that is part terrier and part shitzeu. He is high-strung but extremely intelligent. My sister is very OCD and gets upset when he doesn't follow her commands exactly. I've advised her that he's still a puppy and needs training, not yelling. Additionally, when he goes into the large fenced backyard, he constantly chews on trees and bark. What causes a dog to chew on trees and how can we address both issues?

My dog, a mixed breed of mostly spaniel and chihuahua, is late term pregnant and showing signs of distress such as not eating, not walking, and panting without contractions. She has lost her mucus plug and is slightly bleeding, has been lactating for weeks, and is not progressing in labor. How can I help her, and what should I do if she doesn't improve within the next 12 hours?

Does this look like a pudge on the chest of my French Bulldog? Do you think it is severe? It is hard and part of the chest, not soft like an abscess.

My female puppy, Stella, has started her first heat and I noticed a large bump directly on her private area. Should I make her an appointment to see the vet?
