My Yorkshire Terrier has congestive heart failure. He was prescribed Lasix 12.5 mg, but we have run out of pills and the vet is closed. He is coughing again. Is my HCTZ (Hydrochlorothiazide) at the same dosage interchangeable just until Monday when my vet is open?

My 10-year-old Maltese/Poodle mix has been vomiting, lethargic, slow-moving, and not eating since Thursday. He also has fleas. Should I take him to the vet?

My parents' 8-year-old lab has suddenly stopped eating and was refusing water. He had trouble breathing two nights ago but is now breathing normally. He has been lethargic and vomited once, possibly after trying to eat grass. What could be causing this and what should be done?

Our dog has a large abdominal growth that is about 8 pounds and appeared over the course of a few weeks. She is twelve years old, a yellow lab, and appears completely normal in every other aspect, including eating, drinking, and normal activity for her age. She is not in any pain or discomfort. Short of surgery, is there anything we can do for her?

My dog's tear ducts are now running clear fluid. He was treated with Angel Eyes for 30 days for red staining. What is the problem now?

My dog seems to be grunting like he has a hairball or something in his lungs. He is making an odd sound and stands still trying to breathe. Is there anything I can do about this?
