Our dog Jade, a 7-month-old whippet mix, is often licking her paws and experiencing hair loss in some areas. We have started her on Benadryl and added vinegar to her baths to help her paws, which are starting to look raw. What could be causing these symptoms: allergies or parasites? How can we determine the cause?

My dog Winston, a chiweenie mutt mix, vomited multiple times after eating turkey organs and giblets, and later got into the trash. He was treated with IV fluids and antiemetic meds at the vet, but he's still not eating and is lethargic. Am I being paranoid, or is there a serious underlying issue like pancreatitis or a blockage that we might be missing?

My 7-year-old Collie is showing early signs of bloat: lethargy, increased gas, and a slightly bloated but warm and squishy belly. He has always been tender in the center of his back, which could be spondylosis, and he recently ate a small piece of honey crisp apple. He isn't gagging, retching, or vomiting, his gums are pink and moist, and he can eat, drink, and maintain his appetite. His stool is normal, and he doesn't react to belly pressing. What should I do?
