My miniature schnauzer has a large bulbous growth on his elbow. He's been chewing at it almost constantly for the last couple of days. Can you tell me what this is and if I need to get him in to a vet?

My chihuahua isn't acting right. She is shaking a lot, not eating much, quick to bite or growl, lacks spunk, and constantly paws at my legs to be picked up. She just sits, stares, and shakes. What could be causing this and what should I do?

Hello, I took my dog to the vet to get her spayed, and she had complications during surgery. They had to give her a blood transfusion and vitamin K shot. The next day, her back legs were straight/stiff and she couldn't walk. They worked with her for a week with cortisone shots and acupuncture, and she started to stand with support. Sixteen days later, she is walking but drags her left leg and sways to one side for balance. She has lost most of her muscle and is fragile. Will she fully recover when her muscles come back?

I have a 3-month-old Shih Tzu who has been having blood in his stool, worms, and is not acting like himself. I cannot afford to take him to the vet right now. What should I do?

My bull mastiff and chocolate lab got into a squabble, resulting in my lab having a clean, open, inch-long gash on her left front forearm. I've cleaned the wound with disinfectant, applied neosporin, and wrapped it in gauze. My lab isn't whining and doesn't seem to be in pain other than a limp. How should I treat this wound effectively, and can I give her Advil or Tylenol for any pain?

I have a 3-year-old husky who gets no exercise because I'm disabled. She was given to my mom before she passed away and now she's with me. I feel bad that I can't do anything for her, but she does get a lot of love and affection. What can I do for her?
