My 6-year-old dog, Little Bit, has had a stuffy nose for a couple of months. She has been on allergy medication, but her nose is sometimes runny, and she sneezes. She also has started having bad breath recently. What could be causing this and what can I do to help her?

I have two dogs with behavioral issues. One has anxiety and is attacking the other, who seems hyper. The anxious dog has brain cancer and is currently on prednisone. Their vet suggested behavioral medication. How can I manage their behavior and prevent fights until they can be seen by a veterinary behaviorist?
