I have a 11-year-old Japanese Chin named Isadora who has been showing signs of a cold: wet eyes, a drippy nose, and coughing. She is drinking more water than usual, but is active, eating well, and happy. She was previously treated for an esophageal problem and is now using guaifenisin. What should I do to help her?

My dog swallowed approximately 3 mls of Children’s Tylenol intended for my daughter. Is this a toxic level for dogs, and do I need to make him vomit?

My dog, Sambar, was recently diagnosed with kidney stones and a UTI. She was put on antibiotics and a prescription urinary diet. She seemed to be doing better but suddenly tonight she is straining to poop, her stomach is gurgling, she's restless, and panting. What may have happened? Is it an emergency or will she be okay until morning? Vets are not taking patients, and there's a 10-hour wait for the ER.

My 11-year-old dachshund, Hydie, has been suffering from red itchy spots that develop into scabs for the last year and a half. She has been treated with injections, Viaderm-K-C, and a special diet, but the condition is worsening, especially around her vulva. She is also licking and rubbing the affected areas. What additional treatments or suggestions do you have for managing her condition?

My dog, Oso, a Newfie/Lab mix around 9 or 10 years old, has been experiencing frequent diarrhea, waking up several times at night to go, and has had a loss of appetite and increased sleepiness for several days. He has not shown any signs of pain and has not vomited since Sunday. What could be causing this and what steps can I take to help him?
