We are having a problem getting rid of ear mites in our 6-year-old Mastiff named Gunner. He has been treated for weeks with various ear mite treatments, including Pet Armor and Hartz Ultraguard, and is currently using Zymox ear cleaners and enzymatic ear solution. He has a dark brown, thick discharge in his ears and is shaking them, but no vomiting or blood in stool. What could be the issue and what should we do next?

I have a Bravecto dose for a dog that passed away, intended for 88-123 lbs. I have a dog that is 60-70 lbs and she desperately needs it. Can I give this to her or cut it into 3/4? She has fleas and ticks, and I gave her an OTC topical a couple of weeks ago that didn't work.

My dog had a litter of puppies that are 4 weeks old. I just learned that I should have started deworming them at 2 weeks. What is the correct protocol for deworming 4-week-old puppies, and what are good dewormers for them?

My 10-year-old female Shih Tzu, Sweetie, has been having trouble getting comfortable and crying for 6 months, which has worsened recently. She pants a lot, vomits occasionally, and sometimes enters a trance-like state where she seems disoriented and fearful of being touched. The vet initially suspected epilepsy and prescribed medication, but I'm unsure if that's the correct diagnosis. What could be causing her symptoms, and what further tests should be conducted?
