My dog has a persistent swelling on the nailbed that has not resolved with initial treatment. The swelling does not grow or grows very slowly. Can this be a cancerous tumor, and what are the possible diagnoses for such a swelling? Additionally, is the proposed biopsy procedure worth the risk, considering my dog's anxiety with separation?

My small Chihuahua, Lucy, has become lethargic and is not eating or drinking. She is one year old, not spayed, and has not shown any signs of pain, vomiting, or diarrhea. This behavior is out of character for her, especially since she just had her shots last Monday. What could be causing this and what steps should I take to help her?

My dog is currently taking gabapentin, amitriptyline, meloxicam for pain, and thyrotab for low thyroid. She has been diagnosed with a UTI and was originally prescribed Clovamax, which made her vomit. I just picked up sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim that the clinic recommended instead, but I'm concerned about a significant interaction between this and her amitriptyline, especially since she is 19 with a heart murmur and MVDD. Should I be worried about this interaction, and is there anything I should watch for with this new antibiotic?

My dad’s acting like he has a stomach ache or is in pain. I noticed his bowel movements are a little looser than me normally are. What can I give him to ease up his pain or have an infection in his intestines?
