My dog has a raised, bright red area on the side of her back leg. The hair is gone and it looks like a scrape, but I don't see where she could have done it. She will not stop licking it and when I try to touch it she pulls away like it hurts. Could this be a spider bite? What should I do?

Our puppy Zeus is lethargic and vomiting after receiving his third puppy vaccine for Lepto. He has been lazy, refused dinner, and started vomiting at 6:15 PM, which has continued for the last two hours. Is this a reaction to the vaccine, and what should I do?

I have a 13-year-old German Shepherd Chow cross who is now paralyzed and incontinent. We live in a remote community, and I would like to tranquilize her before she is put down. The only drug I have on hand is Zopiclone 7.5mg. How many pills would it take to sedate her effectively?

My dog was neutered 4 days ago. He has been uncomfortable since but not too bad. I just noticed redness and tenderness of skin near his penis on his stomach. It is after hours and I have to work soon. He is urinating and defecating normally and he's not in too much discomfort. Can I wait until morning, about 12 hours, to see my vet?
