My dog had fleas and I gave him Capstar, but he is still itching and very red near the tail end. He is losing hair as well. I put hydrocortisone 1% on the area. Is there anything else I can do?

My mini dachshund found a cooked bone outside and had a restless night of hacking and swallowing. She is still intermittently hacking and didn't eat her breakfast today. Could it be leftover irritation from the incident, or is there something small in her throat that needs to be removed? How can I help her if there is something in her throat?

I have a 10-13 year old Yorkie named Zeus who recently stopped wanting to walk down the stairs on his own. He seems to walk fine otherwise and has no visible wounds. What could be causing this behavior and how can I encourage him to walk down the stairs independently?

My dog, Luke, a 3.5-year-old healthy dog, licked and possibly ate food that I recently sprayed with Raid Ant and Roach spray about 25 minutes ago. I flushed his mouth with water immediately. He weighs 6.6kg/14lbs 9oz. The active ingredients in the spray are imiprothrin 0.060%, cypermethrin 0.100%, and it also contains petroleum distillate. Is Luke likely to be affected by this, and what should I do?
