My dog is acting weird. She can't jump up on the couch, she squeals when I touch her on her body, she shivers/shakes with her tail between her legs. She has no energy and up until late Wednesday night had not eaten any of her wet food since Sunday morning. As of Thursday she has been eating, and her feces are small like the size of a golf tee. It normally is bigger. She has also been sounding like she has wheezing sounds. She is an indoor dog. What could be wrong with her?

Dr. Loretta, I have a question about my dog Blitz. When she was a puppy, she had a few seizures, and since then, she has developed a habit of coming to me or others in the house to have her lower back rubbed and scratched. While doing this, she nibbles on me as if she's trying to remove fleas, but she has none. I'm wondering if this behavior is normal and if it could be habit-forming. Additionally, I use Sergeant's Skip-Flea & Tick with oatmeal shampoo for her baths. Is this shampoo alright, and how often should I bathe her to avoid dry skin?

I have an 11-month-old miniature Snowzier that ate two 1-inch clusters of dark chocolate with nuts about 1 hour ago. She is acting hyper but there seems to be no other symptoms at this time. What should I do?

My 9-year-old mixed lab dog has raised, flakey, itchy lumps on her mid to lower back, and some hair loss when brushed. She is currently on flea medication and there are no fleas. What could be causing this, and what steps should I take to address it?

My dog, Annie, is experiencing episodes where she falls to the right, can't hold her balance, and is unable to get up. She also has head tremors. This type of episode has happened before a long while back. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My dog has been lethargic this afternoon, still drinks water and goes outside, ate half a milk bone but is very sleepy, her eyes look bloodshot, and her breathing is heavier than usual. Should I be worried?
