My dog scratches excessively, bites different areas of his body until it bleeds, and his hair gets pulled out as a result. We have given him flea baths and medicines but could not see fleas or ticks on him. We put a cone around his head to slow him down, but he still rolls on the ground until his back is raw and irritated again. What could be causing this and what treatments or tests should we consider?

These symptoms are highly indicative of allergies in dogs, commonly referred to as generalized atopy...

My dog has had skinny, mushy stools for about a month after starting a new food. She has to try numerous times before she gets anything out. She is currently taking Rimadyl and has no other symptoms such as vomiting, weight loss, lethargy, or disinterest in food. What could be causing this and what can I do to help her?

My yorkie's front legs went limp today, and the local vet took X-rays and blood tests with no abnormal results. He is in much pain. Have you ever heard of this before? What should I do?

My neutered chihuahua minpin, Jake, has been mounting my other spayed female dog, Bella, and a plush toy, Alli, for the past month. Why is he doing this, and is it harmful?

My dog had a grass seed removed from her right ear a month ago, but she still shakes her head constantly. The vet treated her for an allergy, but there's no improvement. The ears are clean, not swollen, not red, and have no odor. What could be causing this and what should I do?

What should be the diet for my large labrador (over 100 lbs) who recently had intussusception and has been vomiting, with symptoms including undigested food, light-colored vomit, and liquid stool? He has had a light brown, normal amount of formed stool since the vomiting stopped, and I am trying to determine the appropriate diet for him.
