My dog, Marley, a 6-year-old French bulldog, has a red bump under his left front paw. I gave him two anti-inflammatory Apoquel 5.4 mg tablets, which seem to be improving the condition. Today, I can see two spots, possibly punctures. Should I go to the vet to remove any possible intrusions?

My dog, Hank, has arthritis and may have hurt himself on slick floors, causing him to limp and not put pressure on his front left leg. He isn't eating or drinking, and I've tried giving him his favorite treats without success. He's been taking Meloxicam for about two weeks. What should I do?

My pug ate a half of a cigarette. Is it poisonous, and what should I do?

My dog, Benji, a one-year-old Yorkie, licked a frog about 15 minutes ago. We rinsed his mouth out, but he has vomited since then. What should I do?

I have a ten-year-old mixed breed terrier who ate a mosquito biscuit, which is labeled as pet friendly. He vomited several hours after eating and has had trouble sleeping, occasionally stretching with his head down and trunk high. He has slight occasional shivers but is not in distress. Are there any home remedies for his discomfort?

My dog, Zoey, has had a dirty and gunky ear for almost a year, which I believe is an ear infection. She shakes her ear frequently. I want to try an antibiotic liquid like Baytril Otic. What can I do to treat this at home before taking her to the vet?
