Why Is a Dog Coughing and Foaming at the Mouth?
Coughing with white foam often indicates a respiratory infection from temperature swings, poor hygiene or low immunity. A vet may advise amoxicillin-clavulanate and keeping the dog warm.
My roughly two-month kitten, bought a week ago; the night before last at midnight it vomited once, a thin white worm like roundworm, then next afternoon vomited again without worm, just foam, then through the night vomited about ten times, sometimes yellow fluid, eating or drinking nothing, even milk vomited. What do I do?
White thin worms are likely roundworms; frequent vomiting with no food risks pancreatitis and fatty liver, so vet fluids first to correct electrolytes, then deworm. Use ivermectin/fenbendazole-based drugs plus antibiotics; give probiotics later. Do NOT give milk (lactose intolerance).
Red, swollen, tearing eyes with discharge, and occasional sneezing; at first one eye would not open, now the other also tears a bit and is slightly red.
Red, swollen, tearing eyes with sneezing strongly suggest feline rhinotracheitis; severe cases need a vet to avoid blindness or death. If home care, use amoxicillin-clavulanate, ampicillin, famciclovir, lysine, and alternating eye drops. Clean eye discharge.
My two-month-old puppy sneezes and has clear nasal discharge but normal appetite and energy; is it a cold, what should I do, does it need medicine?
With normal energy and appetite, clear sneezing discharge may indeed be a chill or cold; pet cold and anti-inflammatory medicine plus warmth and nutrition can help. Observe 3-5 days, and if it worsens or fever appears, rule out distemper or kennel cough at the vet.

Why does my duck have scabs on its neck and back?
Scabs may be: 1) healing wound from neck injury—check for wounds, disinfect with iodine, let heal; severe → veterinary amoxicillin to prevent infection. 2) Mite or other parasite infection—deworm it.
My dog has coughed with phlegm, sneezed, had a fever, and yellow dried nasal discharge for two weeks—X-ray shows pneumonia. What now?
With pneumonia, oral meds are poorly absorbed—better to go to the hospital for IV, injections, and nebulization. Puppies need infectious disease screening (distemper can cause pneumonia, needing interferon/monoclonal antibodies). Bacterial pneumonia: do a sensitivity test, then use amoxicillin, cefotaxime, doxycycline by weight. Poor appetite: glucose-saline IV. Lots of phlegm: aminophylline to open airways.
What medication is used to treat a dog’s periodontitis?
Common medications for treating a dog's periodontitis include anti-inflammatory and oral-care products, such as amoxicillin-clavulanate and oral disinfectants. First, check the dog's teeth to see if there is plaque or tartar; if plaque and tartar are excessive, it is recommended to clean the teeth first and then use medication, feeding the dog easily chewable and digestible food during treatment. Regular teeth cleaning and oral care are important measures to prevent periodontitis in dogs, so the owner should keep the dog's mouth clean and healthy.
What medicine treats leopard tortoise pneumonia?
Leopard tortoise pneumonia usually needs antibiotics. Isolate it, raise temperature above 30°C, keep ventilated; soak daily in water with gentamicin. If it stops eating, add glucose to the bath for strength. More sun boosts immunity. If no improvement, dose gentamicin or amoxicillin by mouth, controlling amount and frequency.
