My Borzoi, Sylvie, has had jaw chattering for several years, which has recently become more pronounced and almost constant. I suspect it might be related to her teeth needing a deep cleaning. Additionally, I experienced issues with my credit/debit card being rejected when trying to pay for the answer to my previous question, despite correcting the entry. Can you provide any insight into Sylvie's condition and address the payment issue?

I have a 7-year-old chocolate lab with ongoing anal gland issues for 6-7 months. Despite antibiotics and special allergy food, one gland healed but the other remains open. The area has no smell, and the dog rarely scoots. Warm compresses seem to help temporarily, but the dog is sometimes slow to get up. I've used derma-vet ointment and the dog is currently on clindamycin. The dog has also been shaking its head recently. What could be causing the persistent issue and the head shaking, and what further steps should I take?

I have a 4-month-old Yorkie puppy who does not want to eat, wants to sleep most of the time, and has hard stool. I gave her a peanut butter treat before this behavior presented. What should I do?

My cat was given Biomox (amoxicillin) drops for dogs. Is this safe, especially since he has been sneezing more than normal? He was prescribed this after a 24-hour stay in the vet's ICU for possible GI upset and/or gallbladder problems. His CBC showed an elevated TBil of 1, decreased ALKP of 10, and decreased PLT of 161. Prior to the vet visit, my cat had a loss of appetite, no BM for 24 hours, excessive thirst, and decreased urination.

I have a Kelpie named Jake who was hit by a car in April 2010 and now is scared to go for a walk. He broke both bones in his front left leg and now has a plate and pins. He runs away when I try to put the lead on him and is terrified of cars. What can I do to help him regain his confidence and comfort with walking?
