My dog has an orangey blood-seeping, inflamed skin lesion that appeared within the last 5 hours. The area is not near her bottom hole. I cleaned the area with a warm soapy cloth and applied triple antibiotic cream. She is currently sleeping, but I'm concerned. What should I do?

My 13-year-old Cavapoo named Fenway ate about 1/4 of a chocolate chip cookie. Is this amount of chocolate toxic, and should I induce vomiting?

My dog, Luke, was possibly bitten by a copperhead. His neck and jaw are swollen, and he's lethargic, only eating tiny bites of chicken hand-fed by me, and only gets up once a day for bathroom and water. I've been giving him diphenhydramine, 25mg every 12 hours, but I can't afford to take him to the vet. The swelling in his neck may have gone down slightly, but it's hard to tell. What else can I do to help him?

My puppy, Winnie, has been itching and scratching for over a week, causing a rash that has worsened and spread to her legs. She's been on a flea preventative and has had three baths using the same shampoo. What could be causing the rash, and what can I do to help her?

My three dogs, all around 13 years old, have suddenly refused to eat their usual Blue Wilderness dog food, which they have eaten faithfully for a long time. They do not seem to be in pain or more tired than usual. What could be causing this sudden change in their eating habits, and what can I do to encourage them to eat?
