My staffie has developed lumps on his fur, not bothering him but not looking nice. We took him to the beach earlier this year and he came up with these lumps, which I thought were a reaction to the sand and went away in a couple of days.

My dog is coughing, but it's kind of a dry cough. What does it mean? He is 9 to 10 months old.

I have a 1-year-old pitbull with a hard lump on his belly that has developed a hole and is draining. What could this be and what should I do?

My 6-year-old male dog had diarrhea last week, and since then, he doesn't seem quite himself. He's been eating and drinking normally but has been itching, and I've noticed redness just below his bottom. He's also walking and sitting differently and has been in bed all day. What could be causing this, and how long should I wait before taking him to a vet? Is there anything I might try at home first?

Why won't my male Doberman breed with my female Doberman? She shows all the signs of being ready, but my male just licks her and smells her but has no interest in mounting. What is wrong?

My dog has had an abrupt change in attitude. He is very lethargic with diarrhea and I think a fever. He is only 10 months old. His stomach keeps twitching as well. Should I take him in to the vet right away or wait to see if he improves?
