My dog is experiencing nosebleeds, a swollen belly, vomiting blood, and black stool. She is currently at the vet for a blood transfusion and has been diagnosed with thrombocytopenia, not producing enough platelets. The vet is also concerned about her not producing red blood cells after transfusions and her gums turning yellowish. What could be the causes and treatments for these symptoms, and what is the prognosis?

My 9-year-old Yorkie/Scottie mix was diagnosed with diabetes, her blood sugar was 588, and she also has a collapsed trachea. The vet mentioned high calcium levels, suggesting cancer, and recommended euthanasia before her symptoms worsen. I'm unsure what to do and if she's in pain. Can you provide any guidance?

My 13-week-old dog has been extremely itchy since around 8-9 weeks of age, causing hair loss due to scratching and biting. The dog eats, drinks, defecates, and urinates normally, with no unusual smell from the affected areas. There is no flea medication being used, and no fleas are seen. The skin shows redness and slight hair loss. What could be causing this itchiness, and what steps should be taken to address it?
