My dog is having issues with his butt, which appears swollen, and he has been licking the area. Additionally, he has been limping, and his right shoulder seems to have a lump that has worsened over the past week. What could be causing these issues, and what should I do?

A nursing mother dog, Daisy, has dark brown/black discharge from two of her nipples when squeezed, with some white milk also present. The nipples are not red or engorged, and Daisy is otherwise healthy. What could be the cause of this discharge, and should the puppy be kept away from those nipples?

My son found a chewed Immodium packet on the couch, and my 6lb, 5-month-old mini labradoodle, Teddy, had been in my purse twice this evening. I donโt know when he ate the 2mg loperamide tablet, but he is acting normally. Has he thrown up since chewing the Imodium, and is there anything else the Vet should know before I connect?

I have a 2-year-old Rottweiler that had puppies 7 days ago. Her rear nipple is very swollen, the size of a soft ball. What could be causing this, and what should I do for immediate relief until I can take her to the vet?

My dog, Bella, is bleeding from her but and drinking a little, but it comes back out. She is also breathing funny. Bella is one year old and has one-month-old puppies. How badly is the dog bleeding, when did this start, and is there anything else the vet should know before I connect?

We found 2 smelly, ulcer-looking holes on my dog's neck. The wounds are round, swollen, and have a foul odor. My dog's name is Ulli, a 5-year-old German Shepherd. There have been no recent changes in her diet, and we noticed the smell yesterday. We have another dog, and they play together but I haven't seen them get aggressive. What could these wounds be, and what should I do?
