Our 13-year-old lab is experiencing back-to-back seizures. Each seizure lasts 2-3 minutes, followed by 3-5 minutes of disoriented behavior before another seizure occurs. She has been on Levetiracetam 1500 mg twice daily for 2 years. Today, she had her first instance of back-to-back seizures, and she ate a dead frog this morning. What could be causing this and what should we do?

My dog Cooper, a 60-pound, 5-year-old dog, has been experiencing anxiety, repeated swallowing, coughing, drooling, pacing, and crying after getting plant material (fuzzy pickers) on his fur, face, and legs. He has vomited multiple times and is still showing signs of discomfort. What could be causing this and what can I do to help him?

My dog has bad allergies and developed a lick granuloma. She was treated with a cytopoint shot and a combo ointment. It’s been a week and she no longer licks the area. What should the healing process look like and how long should it take? Also, should I get an FNA (fine needle aspiration) for further diagnosis?

I noticed blood on my dog's fur and found a small sac near the anal opening that was split with another protrusion causing bleeding. The dog, Skye, a 9-year-old Husky, has not shown pain until I tried cleaning it and is sensitive to touch. The bleeding is not profuse but seeps continually. Is it safe to wait until Monday to see a vet, as the closest one is an hour away?
