Silver lab pups born on November 8th have developed puppy strangles. Three have been or are being treated with steroids and antibiotics. Can they play with each other? Do I have to worry they can reinfect each other? Two have had two rounds of steroids and seem fine, the third had a few more breakouts and was restarted on December 24th. Since they have not been vaccinated, do I need to worry about them going outside and contracting parvo? What is the typical length of treatment for strangles? How long after giving the last dose of steroid should I wait to give them to a new owner? When should they be vaccinated?

I have a 5-month-old miniature bull terrier, male, who has not dropped his testicles. Should I be worried or keep waiting?

Our miniature poodle is acting lethargic, shivering, panting, and has vomited twice since last night. He's moving constantly as if he can't get comfortable, hasn't eaten or drank water for about 24 hours, and may have chewed pieces of a cooked ham bone. What can we do to help him, and should we be worried?

My dog just got into a box that had one roach tablet. I grabbed it out of her mouth but I think she got probably one tenth of it in her mouth. She is a 90lb lab. What should I do?

I have a beagle that vomits every time he eats, has large amounts of mucous in his vomit, and seems to have lost some weight. He drinks well but has issues with being held or tied down. What could be causing this and what should I do?
