My little dachshund is on day 4 of Meditrich (Metronidazole) for suspected diarrhea, but she only had one episode at the vet. She also has Cushing's disease and an enlarged liver. She is showing signs of being unwell, including a bloated stomach, abdominal pain, confusion, stumbling, and decreased appetite. Could these symptoms be caused by the medication, especially given her liver condition?

I forgot to give my 6-year-old Shih Tzu Maltese mix, Cash, his heartworm and tick and flea medications at the beginning of August. I'm in the South Shore of Boston where mosquitos are bad, and he regularly walks in parks and by the beach. Should I be concerned, and what should I do now?

What happens if my 56 lb Staffordshire Bull Terrier eats Zyrtec-D? I think she ate 2 tablets.

My dog has been taking Buspar for 4 weeks now and I have noticed he is drinking a lot more. Should I be worried?

Our shih tzu (age about 5) has always been very healthy. We came home today and he's coughing and snorting, gagging up white phlegm. This will stop for 10 or 15 minutes then starts again. He seems to feel okay, is eating, and will play with a little urging. Has been coughing for a couple of hours. Don't know if he's eaten something he shouldn't have but he's never done that before. No kids here so not much laying around for him to get into. What could be causing this and what should we do?

My 11-year-old Chihuahua started making a noise like a barking seal yesterday. He has a fever but isn't lethargic. I'm not sure if it's coming from his lungs, and he doesn't have a runny nose or cough up anything. What could be causing this noise, and what should I do?
