My dog, Raella, born in May 2011, has pus coming from her vagina and has been licking and rubbing the area. She is also whimpering and crying. The last vet suggested this happens because she was not fixed. Is she too old to get fixed, and could her cough affect her ability to undergo the procedure? Additionally, are there any affordable veterinarians you can recommend near Los Angeles, California?

Hi, I recently took my boxer mix to the vet for excessive itching. The vet found a lump on her paw and did a fine needle aspiration (FNA) suspecting a mast cell tumor. The FNA came back negative for mast cells, but the vet found other cells suggesting an infection like fungal or parasitic. The vet suggested removing the lump for a biopsy. Is it necessary to pay $1200 for removal and biopsy if the FNA didn't show mast cells? Should the vet have been able to tell us what type of lump it was and if it was cancerous?

I just adopted a 6-month-old puppy named Rudy from the shelter and noticed small, rice-like worms in his poop. What medications should I use or should I go to the vet?

My dog, Saul, who is 1 year old, recently started on Trazodone for anxiety. Over the past week, he has vomited a couple of times in the middle of the night and this morning, his stomach has been making a lot of gurgling noises, and he has no interest in eating. Could this be a side effect of the medication?
