Our dog, Piper, had a flea problem and we used Advantage II and then Frontline Plus, but her itching turned into a rash and her skin near her tail and anus is turning black. She also had balancing issues after a bath and her eyes look unwell. Is there anything I can do?

The symptoms you're describing could be indicative of a more serious issue than just a flea problem....

I have a 60 lb poodle named Charlie, 5 years old, who ate about half of a 500 mL jar of cocoa butter balm and chewed up a Borax ant bait package. What should I do to ensure his safety and health?

I have a Bernese Mountain Dog puppy, 1 year and 4 months old, that ingested a 300 mg gabapentin about 30 minutes ago. The puppy weighs over 100 lbs, has not vomited, and is acting normal. He is also prescribed 20 mg of prednisone daily. What should I do to mitigate any potential side effects?

My 4-month-old Great Dane, Zelda, is lethargic, has a decreased appetite, tummy rumbling, and is not interested in play. She's still drinking and eating small amounts of canned soft food. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My 7-year-old Shih Tzu, Molly, has been coughing and dry heaving for the past day. She does this for a while, then lays down and seems fine. She is eating, drinking, and breathing normally, but the coughing episodes have been more frequent. What could be causing this and what should I do?

Our dog, Olive, a 3 1/2-year-old Labradoodle, has thrown up the entire contents of her stomach twice in the last few days, consisting of relatively undigested food plus yellow bile. Both times occurred early in the morning after she drank copious amounts of water. She eats twice a day, about 1 1/2 cups of dry food, sometimes with an added envelope of soupy chicken mix. She is otherwise healthy and sleeps well. What might be the problem?
