I noticed a lump under my dog's skin yesterday, and today a section of his hair came off that area, which appears irritated with signs of blood behind his neck. His behavior hasn't changed. What could this be, and what should I do?

My mini dachshund ate 10-15 Glyco Flex II bite-sized chews, which is significantly more than her usual dose of 1/2 per day. She has been vomiting multiple times and had diarrhea once. Should I monitor her for other signs to take her to a vet?

My dog has a swollen paw, cries when you touch it or move her whole arm. She is panting like she's in the heat but is an indoor/outdoor dog. Not sure what happened or what should I do?

We have taken our dog to the vet twice due to lethargy, whining, loss of appetite, and lack of thirst. She has been taking prescribed medications (Tramadol, methocarbamol, and carprofen) for several days with no results. We initially thought she was injured after being rolled by a larger dog, but lab work showed no signs of infection, and her temperature is 100.5°F. We found a dark-colored tick on her earlier in the week, and she has ataxia. What additional tests or considerations should we discuss with our vet?

My 14.5-year-old cocker spaniel has a confirmed plasmacytoma on her leg and an unidentified tumor on her tongue. If the tongue tumor is another plasmacytoma and there's no systemic spread, what's the prognosis if I choose not to surgically remove it? Are oral plasmacytomas benign or malignant?
