Leaking urineQ: My questions is what is causing my dog to leak urine when she seems fine in all other ways? i am not even sure if it is from her uretha or from her vagina. i just noticed in the last few days she has been doing this quite a bit. last night she was ddoing this then she gets up and licks, then lays down, and all over again. i am taking her to her vet tonight, but i was hoping to find info on the computer. A: It would take a visit to your veterinarian to determine the cause and the treatment.
LeakageQ: I have a mix dog she is a doberman/german shepard. my concern is that sometimes she leaks some sort of fluid and it really smells. sort of like fish. what could that be and is it normal or should i be worried. A: I would not worry. this is likely anal gland leakage which is quite common. some dogs need these glands periodically expressed at vet
BlastomycosisQ: Our dog, nelly, was just diagnosed with blasto a week ago. her x-ray showed that she had early signs of pnomonia. she was given spornax for treatment. reading one of the questions, kentraconazole was the medication of choice for a dog with an eye condition associated with blastomycosis. would kentraconazole be suitable for our dog? thank you terri nelson and nelly A: Sporonox is a newer and usually better drug with less side effects than ketaconazole
Ear problemQ: My dogs ear on one side is pinkish in color and she scratches quit often. do you think she has an ear infection? A: It may be one or it could be sign of an allergy. your vet should do thorough exam of ear to differentiate this

Tear stainQ: I have a english bulldog and i have tried numerous products to alleviate the tear stains. he has had the surgery for his eyelids, but, his tears still run into his wrinkles. every am i use baby wipes and a special anibiotic shampoo, but , it doesn't get rid of the tear stains very well. just a little. please advise of a product that is effective. A: You should try tear clear (sku 1022).
Frontline plusQ: I have a inside pomarian. he is full grown and weighs 4 pounds. my vet put him on frontline top spot, but i feel since he is a inside dog that the frontline plus would be better. my vet does not carry frontline plus. do they have that in his size. i see it for my bigger dog. A: If you dog is an inside dog he doesn't need the frontline plus. at his weight you cannot use it on him. the topspot should be fine.
Shop for: frontline, frontline plus
