My dog, Bolou, has had an itchy rash and sores on his belly for several months, which has now developed into blisters. We initially thought it was chiggers and treated it with flea/tick serum and anti-itch meds, but it seems to be getting worse. We saw a vet who did not find any mites, and they suggested it could still be chiggers. We also noticed some hard lumps under the skin, which we believe are unrelated. What could be causing this and how should we treat it?

My 3 1/2-year-old Yorkie, Rocco, tends to jump on and off counter-height chairs and has recently experienced discomfort. The vet previously prescribed a muscle relaxer and pain medication, but I'm wondering if there are any over-the-counter options I can use for him this time.

I have a new 1.5-year-old dog named Micky who was 26 lbs when I got him. He has lost 6 lbs because he eats very little, only treats, and refuses various types of dog food. He is energetic and loves attention but is stressed when left alone. What can I do to stimulate his appetite and help him eat regular dog food?

My 3-month-old German Shepherd, Judge, has symptoms of vestibular disease. He can't walk without falling, but shows no pain, vomiting, or diarrhea. His eyes are not darting, and his gaze seems normal. He is still very active and attempts to play. We suspect he may have ingested pool water containing algae a week ago. What can I do in the meantime until he can be seen by a vet?

My 11-year-old Labrador Retriever named Scooby has a mass on his right side of his body, about the size of a dollar coin, which I first noticed about 2 weeks ago. He has recently started licking the area. What should I do about this mass?
