My dog has developed tremors in the neck and mid to upper spine area. The tremors are intermittent, lasting 3-5 minutes, and are more like deep shivering or shaking. Jody, the dog, doesn't show any signs of trouble walking, lack of coordination, knuckling, or stumbling, and he doesn't seem disoriented. He has intermittent lower back/joint pain, which has been treated with doggie Ibuprofen. What could be causing these tremors and what should I do?

I have an 8-year-old, neutered male border collie named Teddy who has been experiencing episodes that seem post-ictal, characterized by exhaustion and an inability to stand, which resolve within minutes to hours. These episodes do not involve seizures, shaking, or neurological signs. Teddy is still very active and eats normally most of the time. What could be causing these episodes, and what should I do?

My brother has a 9-year-old black lab. His scrotum is enlarged to about the size of 2 small apples and seems to be quite heavy because it stretches the skin and hangs down lower than normal. Is this normal for older dogs or could it be cancer or something?

I have an 18-month-old blue nose pitbull who is white and scratches all the time. I took her to the vet, and they gave me shampoo and pills, which worked for two weeks, but now the scratching has returned. I need help because I love my dog, and she is losing hair on her tail.

My 1-year-old Jack Russell Terrier is shivering, panting, and vomiting. She seems to have a stomach ache and has been drinking bath water from my daughter's bath, which contained Aveeno Baby wash and shampoo. What can I do for her right now, and should I take her to the vet immediately or wait until morning?
