Our dog, Diesel, has been eating almost 4 times what he used to. We recently changed his food to a Silence diet for a small dog, and he weighs 25 lbs. After eating, he goes outside and sometimes eats his own waste. He comes back in within 10 minutes and wants more food. Is it possible that he has a tapeworm or another type of infestation?

Does feeding dry kibble with a higher than average protein level of 34% - 42% cause a dog's kidneys to work harder? Is this harmful to my dog?

My four-month-old puppy, who has had all his shots, is sneezing quite a bit and sometimes retches, mostly in the morning. This has been going on for about 5 days now. There is no runny nose or eyes. Does this sound like Kennel Cough and if so, how should I treat it? I take my puppy to the dog park quite often, which may be where he caught this.

Can my English Bulldog take Sudafed (pseudoephedrine) for allergies, and is the dosage weight-based (x mg/lb)? If the dog has already received 15mg Sudafed (weight 54lbs), what is the toxic dose, symptoms of toxicity, and treatment?
