My dog, Rip, age 2, has been licking around his butt and groin area, causing the skin to become raw and pink. He has been itching for about a week and now licks constantly. There is no unusual smell, and he is full of energy. I changed his food about a month and a half ago. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My dog, Trixie, a 4-year-old, is pawing at her tooth and slobbering a lot. This happens once every few months. Her teeth look normal, and there's no swelling on her gums. She seems to have trouble closing her mouth for a few seconds, paws at the back of her mouth, and shakes her head. What could be causing this, and what should I do?

My 70lb dog ate 3-5 raisins. Is he going to be okay till the morning when I can get him in to his regular vet? Also, I gave him hydrogen peroxide and he has yet to vomit.
