When I gave my dog Bear, who will be 1 year old in 3 days, a bath this morning, I noticed that both his front legs at the 'knee' joint are swollen. The swelling does not seem to be painful to him, and he is not limping. What could be causing this swelling, and what should I do?

The swelling in Bear's front legs is likely fluid within the joint capsule, which is common in joint...

My 12-week-old, 18-pound Border Collie puppy, Alfie, ate a used tea bag less than 2 hours ago. He hasn't thrown up and is currently behaving normally. Should I be concerned about caffeine toxicity, and will he pass the tea bag through his system safely?

My dog, Luna, a 2-year-old 45-pound dog, ate about a quarter of a homemade brownie with milk chocolate chips about 5 minutes ago. She is on Apoquel (1/2 tablet daily, 16mg). What should I do and what are the potential risks?

My 11-year-old Shih Tzu-Pomeranian mix, Bear, was sedated for grooming six days ago and has not eaten or moved much since. He has been anxious and is barely drinking water. I took him back to the vet, who said he was traumatized and gave him a rebound recuperation formula, but there has been no change. What else can I do?
