Our 14-year-old dog, who has had a good life, has a very low red blood count and has rapidly declined since being told he may have cancer. He has not eaten in 3-4 days and is very weak, but not in pain. Our vet suggests comfort care is all that is left. What are some humane suggestions for managing his condition or considering euthanasia?

I have a pregnant female Pomeranian that is due anytime. She is acting weird, pooping on herself, and pooping black tar all over my house. Is this normal, and should I be worried or take her to be seen?

My older dog has a hard time eating, has lower energy, and struggles with stairs. The vet found a solid, fist-sized mass in front of his right back leg and suggested exploratory surgery. Is this safe for older dogs, and what other tests should be done before proceeding?

Is it possible my young street dog only had one ovary or was this a botched spay?

Eddie hasn't been eating much over the last few days, and his hind legs suddenly lost strength. He seems to be getting worse, struggles to move, and has been eating snow and drinking little water. He vomited once after a vet visit where he received antibiotics and a nausea injection. His gums are red and sticky, and he shows signs of discomfort when laying on his chest. What could be causing these symptoms, and what steps should be taken to help Eddie?

A 12-13 year old Doberman named Woody has a large epulis on his upper right canine. Pre-surgery EKG results were unsatisfactory, and the vet wants an ultrasound to investigate further. Is there a way to remove the growth without anesthesia?
