My dog vomited twice yesterday. The first time was his food and the second was yellow and watery. He didn’t really eat his food today and just wanted water however he vomited that watery yellow stuff again. He is pretty much acting like his normal self playing and all besides the eating.
What should I do?
Could it be the heat?

I need to take a stool sample in to my vet. I collected a sample yesterday and put it in the refrigerator. My vet will not be open again until Tuesday. Will the sample be good until then or will I need to try to get a more recent sample?

Hello – I hope you can give some advice…I’m the mother of two small kids ages 4 and 7, and my 16 year old dog has some serious health issues and is suffering. We’ve chosen to have her put down.
This dog has been a part of their lives since they were born and we all love her and will miss her. I’ve scheduled a house-call vet to come out to our house for this to minimize the stress and let her pass in her own home, but I’m torn on whether to have our kids present for this.
What are your feelings on this matter?

Our 10 year-old toy poodle has crusty discharge from her eyes for months but now she is squinting and rubbing her eyes. What could this be and is there a treatment to help her?
I have a 12 year old Collie with very dry skin itchy. She’s always scratching and biting her lower back. Besides wearing away her fur and driving me crazy, I’m getting concerned.
My friend suggests adding fish oil to her diet to help.
Does this sound like a good solution? I’ve tried so many other solutions and nothing is working.
Thanks
Can you tell me the life expectancy for an Addison dog after diagnosis ?

PS My dog is being treated with percotin and prednisone for the last 3 years.
I have a small 18 month old female collie. Around 20 – 30 mins after taking her out on an overgrown track (grass, nettles etc) her face began to ripple and swelled to more than twice its size within seconds, in front of my eyes. Her eyes were ‘Chinese’ looking and she basically looked like a Staff Bull Terrier. She did not seem distressed, was eating and drinking as normal and swallowing and barking OK. The swelling has gone down quite a bit this morning and she is still eating OK. She has been up this track many times, but not for a couple of weeks due to the overgrowth. Could this be a bite or sting?

Hello,
I leave my dog in the laundry room when I am gone at work.
In the last few months, she has gotten more and more destructive. My dog always scratched the door a bit, but now it is ruined and she’s chewing on the trim round the door. I’ve tried a few things but nothing really helps.
My neighbor says she might have separation anxiety.
Can you help?
Thank You – Kay
