My dog, Dewey, a 9-year-old lab/terrier mix, has been on 125mg of Atopica for 8 months to manage allergy-related dermatological reactions. He recently tried reducing the dosage to every other day but experienced increased itching and stress. Is it safe to give Benadryl along with Atopica, and what dosage should be administered for a 75-pound dog?

My pug, Leila, who is almost 10 years old and blind, just swallowed a small toy mouse about an inch and a half long. It was about 3 minutes ago, and she hasn't thrown up yet. Can I make her throw up, and what should I do if she doesn't?

My dog had a suspected seizure. Can I wait until the morning to call her regular vet, or should I take her to the ER? She has Cushing's disease.

My larger 80lb dog is prescribed 5 mg tablets of pimobendan 2 times a day. He eats this with his food. I saw the smaller 20lb dog around his food after he had eaten it. I'm fairly certain the larger dog ate all the food but can't be 100% sure. Has the smaller dog, Weebea, ingested any pimobendan, and if so, is it toxic for him?

My dog, Lady, was in a fight with another dog and now she won't eat and is moping around. She has wounds under her eye, on her neck, her butt, and her side. We cleaned her wounds with warm water and hydrogen peroxide, and applied antiseptic and tri-ointment. Should I take her to the animal hospital tonight, or wait until tomorrow morning?

My dog, Bella, a 2-year-old weighing approximately 60 pounds, has hives and facial swelling. She has been licking and scratching at the affected areas since last night. There have been no changes in her eating, drinking, defecating, or urinating, and she has no known underlying medical conditions. What should I do to help her?
