My dog, Georgie Girl, has had bloody stools for the past 12 months, despite multiple courses of antibiotics. She was checked for parasites and was negative. I suspect coccidiosis or IBD, but I'm more concerned after multiple antibiotic treatments. We live in a rural area with many vermin. What could be causing her condition and what steps should I take to address it?

My 19 lb mix dog, Chugs, has been experiencing severe diarrhea and is unable to keep food down. He held down a small amount of food today.

My 5-month-old Chihuahua, Scrappy, licked a suboxone pill that is 8mg/2mg and 90% intact. He did not eat the pill, but some of it dissolved in his mouth. He is acting normal, but I'm concerned because he is so small. Should I be worried about any potential effects?
