My standard doxie had lumps removed 14 days ago. The sutures were removed last Thursday. One area looks fine and is healing, but the area behind his elbow hasn't formed a scab yet. I'm applying kera vet gel and just ran out. The area looks open and red, and I found a couple of sutures I had to remove myself. Should I give him carprofen, and how should I manage his healing process?

My dog, Shaky, is bleeding from his penis. It's not a lot but it's concerning. He's 5 years old, has had his updated shots, and is urinating frequently. He tends to hump his bed a lot and I put a cone on him to prevent licking. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My pup is vomiting clear fluid with some foam, refusing to eat, doesn't hold the 5ml of fluid I am giving, very lethargic, and at times has heavier breathing. When did you first notice this decrease in the dog's appetite? Does the dog seem to be in any pain? What's the dog's name and age? How would you like to connect with the Vet - phone call or online chat?

My dog Licorice, a cross poodle almost 11 years old, is having trouble pooping, is squealing and jumping around, has a decreased appetite, and seems more tired than usual. He may have had a smear of blood in his poop yesterday. What could be causing these symptoms and how can I get him treated as I have no independent transport?

My dog ate half a bar of 80% dark chocolate about 10 minutes ago. She weighs 50 lbs and is 15 months old. Is this a cause for concern, and should we monitor her or seek emergency treatment?

My dog Benji, who has a heart murmur and has been on furosemide for fluid on the lungs, has been diagnosed with a collapsing trachea and an enlarged liver, possibly indicating liver disease. The vet advised discontinuing furosemide and Vetace due to potential worsening of symptoms. I'm seeking a second opinion on whether this is the correct course of action and what other steps should be taken.
