We have an 8-year-old female Maltese named Chloe who has been diagnosed with ringworm, but the Chlorhexidine medication given by the vet hasn't helped. She has been licking herself, causing redness and irritation. Chloe has allergies, an inactive thyroid for which she is taking levothyroxine, and a heart murmur rated as a 5. What could be causing her skin issues, and what should we do to address them?

My dog, Finn, a 2.5-year-old Dachshund, has dry and warm nose and red testicles. I noticed this just a moment ago and haven't seen him messing with his testicles, but he's licking himself normally. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My dog, Sofie, ate a ham bone over the past 4 days and now has tremors, heavy panting, and is hiding in odd places. She didn't eat breakfast, has peed but not pooped, and is generally anxious but not in pain. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My 15-week-old dog, Oreo, has been diagnosed with parvo and is experiencing severe symptoms such as bloody diarrhea and vomiting. We have been administering Paxxin and Ondansetron as prescribed by the vet. What additional steps should we take to manage Oreo's condition, and can we use Vicbactra Plus alongside Purina Fortiflora? Also, should we increase the use of Ondansetron and obtain SQ fluids for injection, and how can we get these prescriptions?

My dog, Addison, a 6-year-old beagle-lab mix, has had a dry, intermittent cough for about 12 hours. She is otherwise healthy, has energy, is eating normally, and has no nasal discharge. She has been coughing about 10 times, and it initially sounded like something was stuck. What could be causing this cough, and what should I do?
