My West Highland terrier vomits up what's usually a clear fluid about 3-5 times per week. Is it time to cut out the occasional treats of cooked meat we give him and keep him on a strict diet of dog food like Iams or Eukanuba? Or could he have a more serious problem?

I store my dry dogfood in one of those Vitles Vaults. It is a food grade plastic container with an air tight screw on lid. Is there any risk of the food developing anything like aflatoxin? I don't clean it between bags. When I finish up the food I pour the new bag of food in there. Is this a good...

........while someone posted this dog food recall earlier, I thought I'd bring it to everyone's attention that dogs have died due to the aflatoxin contamination. So if anyone out there has dogs with unexplained liver troubles and are feeding any Diamond products, best take them off it, save the...

I was just watching my dog dream. She is lying on her side, one eye is slightly open showing just the white, and her feet and eye are flickering. There is an opaque membrane that comes in from the side (the nose side) that covers up to half her eye. I've never noticed it before, but have...
