My parents' Pomeranian dog, Bear, has black skin disease. He was on medication for itching, which worked, but my parents have financial issues. Are there any over-the-counter medications that could help? Bear has been itching for about a year, his back is almost black, he's losing hair, and getting infections from itching. He is 6 years old.

I have a 4-month-old Miniature Schnauzer named Callie Jo who ate one tablet of generic Excedrin. She is 11.5 lbs and healthy, but I am concerned about any potential effects. What should I do and what should I watch for?

My female boxer/pitbull mix, Lilo, has an extended stomach and was recently treated for worms. She shows no other symptoms such as vomiting or blood in her stool, and she remains playful, active, and eats well. I haven't seen worms in her stool for the past few days. What should I do next?

My dog, a 1.5-year-old Silky Terrier weighing about 10/11lbs, ate a tiny piece of a McDonald's cheeseburger, less than an inch in size, which might have contained a few tiny pieces of onion. I'm concerned about potential health issues from the onion or the fast food's greasiness. Is he likely to be OK?

My 16-week-old Mini Bernedoodle named Schooner had a vaccine around 11:30 today and is now vomiting twice in the last two hours. The vomit is foamy with food, and he wants to eat grass. He might have eaten bugs and played in ground cover. What should I do?
