My dog, Buster, had TPLO surgery 9 weeks ago and has been on Gabapentin and now Trazadone. He has become very aggressive, snapping, growling, and even biting family members. He is normally a friendly dog and not human aggressive. I am concerned about the use of Trazadone and the potential for serotonin syndrome. What could be causing this sudden aggressive behavior and what should I do?

One of my Miniature Schnauzers has pulmonary hypertension and is on sildenafil 10mg every 8 hours. The other Mini Schnauzer is on 25mg Hydroxyzine 2 times a day. I accidentally switched their medications. Both dogs are around 20-23 pounds. Will the Schnauzer without pulmonary hypertension be okay with one dose of 10mg sildenafil? And will the dog with pulmonary hypertension be okay with one dose of 25mg hydroxyzine?

My Tibetan terrier ate about 7 Tropiclean dental chews with flaxseed, which are the smaller chews. He vomited and seems fine now. Do I need to get further attention from a vet on this matter?

My 8-year-old Yorkie, Bella, is sneezing blood. She was diagnosed with a collapsed trachea and is on medication, but her condition has worsened with nonstop sneezing and now blood coming out of her nose. The ER vet suggested it could be cancer and recommended testing which would cost 2-3 thousand dollars. Could it possibly be a fungal infection, especially since this started after she visited the groomer?

My dog played with a dead one-inch frog. I washed his mouth with water, and he seems okay. I heard that could be very dangerous for dogs. Is there anything I should do in the future?
