My dog, Phoebe, a 2-year-old Border Collie/Australian Shepherd, may have injured her face while playing with a ball. She whines when I touch below her ear by her jaw and keeps shaking her ears.

I gave my 12-year-old Schipperke, Max, 2 tablespoons of anti-diarrhea medication instead of 2 teaspoons. He has been uncomfortable with loose/runny stools for the past two days. He eats sensitive stomach food from the vet and hasn't eaten anything unusual. What should I do to help him recover?

My friend found two dead dogs in a freezer at her relative's place after their divorce. The dogs had been in the freezer for 5/6 years. She wants to put these dogs to rest without causing trouble for anyone. What are her options for properly disposing of the dogs?

My puppy, Dutch, had his rabies vaccine yesterday and just threw up. Should I be concerned? He threw up 3 times in a row, with the first time containing food and the subsequent times being liquid. He's also tired today but otherwise seems normal.

My 10-year-old Golden Retriever, Riley, has a mass in his abdomen detected on an x-ray, elevated kidney levels (about 3 times the normal level), and has been lethargic and not drinking much water, though he has kept down some boiled chicken and rice today after vomiting yesterday. How worried should I be about the mass and his kidney levels, and what should I do next?
