– I went to the vet’s office to purchase my dog’s monthly Trifexis on the 2nd, as usual. (He takes them on the 3rd.)
– They referred me to their new service through an online pet pharmacy, and I ordered that day.
– It’s taken 10 days, and the tracking says it’s finally supposed to get here today.
– I contacted said online pet pharmacy to ask if it was safe to give a dose that late, and they said to call my vet.
– I called the vet’s office and got a receptionist.
Me: “The Trifexis is coming today. Should I give it to him?”
Her: “It’s probably okay, but it’s your risk.”
Me: “Risk of what?”
Her: “Well, he could have gotten bitten by a mosquito…”
Me: “So, that means…?”
Her: “It’s probably okay. Maybe just come in and give him Heartgard.”
Me: “Would that be safe?”
Her: “I think so”
Me: “Could he go back to Trifexis next month?”
Her: “Heartgard is 30 days.”
Me: “It wouldn’t have any adverse effects?”
Me: “I wouldn’t think so.”

I feel like I’m getting the runaround, and my vet is unavailable, so I’d really appreciate some insight here. Thank you!

My dog is acting very lethargic, has a loss of appetite, wobbles when walks or stands, wobbles head while sitting down, and is drooling excessively. Any suggestions? She is one year old and is a cockapoo.

I try to feed my cats tuna/seafood flavored wet foods as sparingly as possible, but Sebastian is becoming picky to the point where he will only eat his dry food (Nutro high-protein) or tuna (Blue Buffalo gourmet) or a now discontinued shrimp/chicken/duck combo (Wellness). He will eat some chicken canned foods from those brands, but not always and not much of it. Is it unhealthy for him to have tuna about 4 times a week? He gets 1 3oz can a day, split into 2 servings and about 1/4c of dry food.

I’ve tried mixing a small amount of other food in with the tuna but then he refuses to eat any of it.

At first we thought it was food stuck in his ear so tried to comb it out last night. Today he’s been scratching his ear. It’s become worse and become a scab/sore.

My Labrador retriever ate 40 mg of Prozac. She has never had any before and I don’t know whether or not this could be dangerous.

since a couple days ago shes been getting swollen around the stomach area and she hasnt been as energetic lately and i dont know what to do now because i cant go get medicine or anything because the pet store is closed and most vets near me are all closed as well

My dog has excessive licking and oozing sores. He is not itching and none of the other dogs have it

One month kitten has large growth on chest with pussing hole in middle

I rescued an abandoned 10 day old kitten. Now 16 days old. just starting have diarrhea and now sore red bottom. Appetite is waning. Also meows constantly as if in pain. Please help!

My dog has been having diarrhea for about 4 days now, and is only eating at night. He will happily eat two meals worth at night. He has been having super smelly farts. I noticed that the farts seem to come mostly after he eats (several an hour for a couple hours), but through the rest of the day, its about once every few hours. His diet doesn’t really change, but he does love spending a lot of time in the back yard.
