Our dog was recently diagnosed with multiple myeloma and started on Melphalan and prednisone. He has been doing well but has been receiving rotisserie chicken daily. Today, he is lethargic, not eating, and has labored breathing. I am concerned about possible thiosulfate poisoning from onion powder or garlic in the chicken. Is there anything we can do for him at home?

Our Great Dane is nearly eleven years old and has become bowel incontinent over the last few months. He is unaware when it happens, and his stools are dry-ish and easy to collect. I have made no changes to his diet, and he is not overweight and in good health generally for his age. Someone mentioned steroids that can help with this problem. What could be the cause, and would steroids be a viable treatment option?

I have a 9-year-old Chocolate Lab who has fallen down stairs and now avoids getting in the car or coming up stairs. He seems to favor one side when walking. Is there an animal clinic or vet school where we can take him for a discounted check-up?

My 5-year-old Labrador is generally in good health but slightly overweight. This morning, he was quieter than usual, less keen on food but still ate a dog biscuit. He is noticeably shaking around his hind quarters and back legs, seems slow and less responsive than normal. He seemed fine yesterday. What could be causing this?

My dog has small lumps in her mammary glands, sometimes coughs, and has been congested. She hasn't been spayed and was recently treated for ehrlichia. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?
