My dog, Elle, a 3-year-old Havanese, has a swollen and red vagina that she keeps licking. This started today. Her appetite is good, and she doesn't seem more tired than usual, but she is uncomfortable. I gave her an amoxicillin I had left over to help her sleep. She is fixed and takes Simparica once a month for flea and tick prevention. Is she having a hard time urinating? Are there any other medications or previous diseases I should know about?

My mixed poodle, 5 years old, is experiencing seizures that last between 2-5 minutes, with some lasting up to 10-15 minutes. The seizures are becoming more frequent, with the first one occurring about 2 years ago and several more in the past few months. During the seizures, he can walk a little and mostly moves his legs and arms around. What could be causing these seizures and what should I do?
