I recently had to put my 14-year-old pitbull to sleep due to a large hemangiosarcoma tumor on her heart and fluid buildup in her abdomen. I feel guilty for making the decision quickly and wonder if I should have tried more treatments or taken her to a specialized emergency hospital. Could I have done more to prolong her life or was putting her to sleep the right decision?

My 12-year-old Maltese terrier, Lady, had her spleen removed due to splenic stromal sarcoma in February 18. She started having seizures and is on Keppra, 0.7ml three times a day. This is her first week on Keppra, and she now has a cough, is unsteady, urinates frequently near her bed, is listless, and has no appetite. She has also vomited and has a wheezy cough. What could be causing these symptoms, and what should we do?

My 5-year-old Weimaraner, Billy, is licking his bottom and panting occasionally. He seems a bit on the skinny side and is very active. The breeder had a problem with giardia, but this dog was never diagnosed. I don't see anything unusual in his feces. Should I treat him with panacur?
