My dog, Sasha, had IVDD surgery in April with a hemolaminectomy at T13-L3 and a disc extrusion at L5-L6. She has been on strict crate rest and physical therapy since then. Recently, her balance has worsened, her rear legs are giving out, and she is dragging her left rear leg more. Could this be due to the remaining hemorrhage area that the surgeon did not fully remove, or is it more likely related to muscle loss from the extensive crating and weight loss?

My dog started vomiting yesterday and is very quiet. He hasn't shown any signs of diarrhea yet, and there is parvo virus in the area, but my dog has had no contact and doesn't go out the front of the house. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My dog came up limp in her left back leg last week after running and rolling on the grass after a ball. She is getting worse now; she cannot go upstairs on her own but can go downstairs. She also sits oddly. What should I do?

I have 2 dogs, and one has a skin issue that is black and scabby. We took her to the vet a year ago, who diagnosed it as a skin infection and prescribed antibiotics and shampoo, but the condition hasn't improved. She scratches a lot, has gained weight, eats very little, and drinks water but is mostly lethargic and refuses to go out unless necessary. What else can we try to help her?

I have an 8-year-old female Bernese mix with two soft bumps on her coat, one near her rear and the other on her front leg. She shows no signs of discomfort or pain, but I'm unsure what these bumps are and what I should do about them. Can you provide some guidance?

Just a follow up on my previous question, I told my husband that you suggested Pepto Bismol. He wasn't happy with the reply. Do you think that an upset stomach would cause Lucy to be scared?
