My dog chewed on a bottle of Bactine and drank half the bottle. Can you tell me how much Bill weighs and how large the bottle of Bactine was - in ounces or mL? Bactine contains benzalkonium chloride 0.13%, which is equivalent to 1.3 mg/mL. Dogs remained safe after ingesting 12.5 mg/kg, but deaths were seen at 25-50 mg/kg.

I have a 6-month-old huntaway x puppy. In the last two weeks, I have noticed a growth above one of his front paws that appears red, painful, and is getting bigger quickly. The puppy hasn't had any other health issues and doesn't have any other unusual bumps or growths. What could this growth be and what should I do about it?

I have a 5-year-old female Chihuahua weighing about 6 lbs. She has been licking her behind frequently and I noticed a couple of scabs around her anus. She is eating and drinking normally but is excessively licking and rubbing her bum on the floor. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My dog has elevated liver enzymes and excessive fluid in his belly. Ultrasounds of his heart and liver showed no abnormalities. Extensive blood work was all normal other than the liver enzymes. He is not in distress, other than his breathing sounds a bit wheezy at night when he is sleeping. He is eating well and has maintained his normal activity level. We've spent over $1,000 on tests and a round of antibiotics, but no further ahead in figuring out what is wrong with him. Do you have any ideas?
