RabiesQ: My sister had to have a dog put down yesterday who we loved very much. he was an inside/outside dog. we got him from a shelter about 6 monthes ago. he recieved his rabies vaccine at that time. yesterday she noticed he was acting strange and had 2 puncture marks on him. she took him to the vet and his blood work showed that he had rabies. they put him down. how could an animal that had had a rabies vaccine have wound up with rabies? how effective are the vaccines? this is very difficult for all of us. we thought he was protected! thank you. A: I dont know how they told with a blood test that the dog had rabies. only way to diagnose rabies is by examining brain tissue under microscope. sounds like iffy diagnosis to me

Frontline not workingQ: I have a 4 year old lab and use frontline plus on her regularly. just recently she has been scratching her ears alot. why does she have fleas even with regular use of this product? what can i do to get rid of these fleas; she has scratched her fur off right behind both her ears. thanks so much for your help. A: Are you sure she has fleas; because dogs can itch their ears for other types of allergies. if you are truly seeing fleas, then you could try advantage for fleas as well as treating your house as well which is just as important

Baytril 68mgQ: My dog, westie) has high enzymes in her liver and she has been on baytril 68 mg for one year -- if we stop she throws up and her appetite is less. the vet said she will always have to take this as she is 16 years old and also a diabetic and this keeps her from getting urinary/etc infections. we are currently paying $2.60 a pill a day. do you have this. otherwise, she seems to be fine and is much better since we found out she is a diabetic one month ago, thanks. appreciate a reply. A: I believe we do have it but is by prescription which you will need from your vet to purchase
