My 6-year-old Chihuahua named Blue is holding her head up, her eyes are wide open, and she was crying. Earlier, she wouldn't bend her head down to pick up a treat, and she was treated for an ear infection 2 months ago. What could be causing her discomfort and what should I do?

My dog may have eaten mouse poison in the garage. He is not eating, vomiting about 7 times in the last 24 hours (initially red, now white foam), and showing no ambition. What should I do?

My dog, Java, a 20lb Schauzer, has been throwing up and having diarrhea for over a day. She can't keep anything down and has a very sensitive stomach. I suspect she ate something in the yard. Can I give her an 8mg ondansetron ODT pill meant for humans?

My dogs have severe allergies to flea bites and have been through two cycles of prednisone, but the rashes and itching return once the prescription is finished. I give them Benadryl daily for the itching, but it doesn't seem to help anymore. I was wondering about the dosage requirements for Vistaril. The dogs' names are Hunter, Daisy, and Sissy. Hunter is a pit/boxer mix, 6 years old, 80 lbs, and on daily medication for hypothyroidism. Daisy is 4 years old, 55 lbs, and Sissy is 2 years old, 48 lbs. Neither Daisy nor Sissy have any other medical issues.

Good morning, my puppy, Mello, who is 1 1/2 years old, keeps licking the skin on the inside of his legs just above the pads of his feet, causing the area to become very red. He is outside a lot and could get into anything. I also feed him real food, including mock tender steak, but I think this condition started before I began feeding him that. What could be causing this and what can I do to help?
