My dog, a 12-year-old English Setter, got a clean, inch-long puncture wound from a pair of scissors while I was removing duct tape from his leg. I cleaned the wound, used antiseptic, dried it, and glued it shut. I'm concerned about potential infection since the wound punctured the hide. How should I monitor and treat this wound, and should I consider antibiotics or a vet visit?

My 7-year-old Yorkie, Maddox, underwent injury repair (stitches) and experienced a cardiac arrest after being a bit aggressive while coming out of anesthesia. He has been unresponsive, only breathing and blinking, for about 10 hours. He recently had a bowel movement that was sticky, black, and gooey. What should I do?

My 5-month-old dog, Luuna, has a large yellowish-white pimple on her vagina. I noticed it 5 minutes ago, and she has been licking the area a lot for a few days. The pimple doesn't seem to hurt her, but it's very swollen. There is a bit of pus mixed with blood coming out, and I have washed the area. Is there anything I can do to treat it, or should I take her to the vet?

I just adopted a rescue dog named Rebel, who is 1 year old. He is exhibiting extreme anxiety, including running away after a bath, having accidents inside, not eating often, and being afraid to go outside due to a traumatic experience of being outside in the rain for 24 hours. What can be done to help him with his anxiety and improve his behavior and appetite?

My 8-month-old American Pitbull Terrier, Blue Bear, had his first shot and is now not eating, wobbly, and just wants to rest. He was full of life earlier today, played in the backyard, and I introduced him to raw eggs in his food. His nose is dry and warm. What could be causing this and what should I do?
