My 5-year-old border collie mix recently had dental x-rays done, and the vet recommended extracting two bottom-middle teeth due to lack of bone support and slight movement. I want to avoid unnecessary extractions but need to monitor for infection and bone loss affecting surrounding teeth, especially the canines. How serious is the situation, and what should I do to manage it?

My dog accidentally ate one of my Alpha GPC supplement pills. The dog weighs 12 lbs and is just over a year old. Hasn't thrown up since eating the pill. Is it dangerous for him to have eaten it?

My 4-year-old dachshund, Winnifred, has red inflamed bumps around her anus. She’s been licking at it a lot and scooting on the ground. No issues with eating or pooping—it seems external. She also has separation anxiety and was prescribed trazodone about 2 months ago.

My dog is 58 days pregnant and has had a temperature drop to 36°C, which has now gone back up to 37°C. She seems unhappy and has had clear mucus come out of her 3 days ago. She is also showing signs of discomfort such as licking her paw and scratching the floor. What should I do to help her, especially since I am unable to get to a vet due to flooding?

I’m worried my dog, Miss Piggy, a 4-year-old 6-pound dog, has kennel cough. She’s had a cough off and on for a couple of months, but since seeing the groomer 2 days ago, she has a runny nose, sneezing, and a cough. She’s also had a decreased appetite for 2 days. What should I do?
