My dog's left ear is producing discharge with erythema from the flap down into the ear canal and at the base. It makes a 'squishing' sound when she scratches at it and has become very painful. We just noticed it within the last week but it may have been going on for a couple of weeks. Her last vet visit was 3 months ago, and she is not on any medications. Sis is a pit mix, about 9-12 months old, up to date on vaccinations, and has no known medical conditions. She prefers kibbles and bits, and her appetite has decreased moderately. The ear is extremely tender to touch, and she does not cooperate well when attempting to flush the ear.

My dog, Layla, a 4-year-old pit bull, hasn't eaten in 3 days, is lethargic, had vomiting after drinking water yesterday with blood in her urine for a short period, and has always been a picky eater. What should I do?

My Shih Tzu/Yorkie mix, LuLu, is experiencing shaking, diarrhea, and vomiting. She hasn't eaten this morning but drank water last night. What could be causing these symptoms and what steps should I take to help her?

Hi, I have a 6-month-old Rottweiler named Cujo. She has a small bubble on the side of her eyeball that has been a concern for about a month. It gets better and then shows back up. Cujo had her first vet visit 2 months ago for shots and is not on any medications. What could this be and what should I do?

I am COVID positive. My dog, Ava Jane, is throwing up with food and a little foam, and she is shaking. She is 2.5 years old and weighs 12 lbs. Could the dog have eaten anything unusual? Is there anything else the vet should know?

I have a 13-year-old pug with darkened and flaky skin under her belly. She spends a lot of time on her belly due to weak legs. Is there a cream that can be recommended, and should we be concerned about the dark color?
