My dog wears a harness when I walk him. We recently moved to a big city where there are some vicious dogs. When I walk him near these houses he pulls me very strongly. I just noticed he has 2 purplish bruises on his chest. One is flat. The other is a bump that feels spongy to the touch. That one is right under the cross section of the harness where both parts meet. So I am guessing that is where the harness hits him the most. I would like to know what these are and how to cure him?

Recently, I've noticed my dog scratching himself frequently, particularly on the belly, thighs and shoulders, and have noticed him chewing and licking at his legs. I have noticed some little black specks on his fur. The itching and scratching is getting worse and worse and I'm afraid that he may get a skin infection or something more serious. Does my dog have fleas? What sort of treatment should I start with? What other things should I do to handle an infestation?

My rat-terrier/bulldog Mason is about 1 1/2 and quite a while back he got parvo, we took him to the vet and got his treatment and he made it. They say a dog can't get parvo twice, but starting last night he started having diarrhea that smelled like it did when he had parvo. Today I went to town and took him with me, and in the car he was shivering and panting at the same time. Then he threw up a lot of food type stuff, but in it was something sharp and jagged and hard. Could that cause it?

My 1 year old Minature Pinscher is twitching and dipping her back like it's spasming about every minute or so. It's been happening for about 24 hours. It didn't seem to be bothering her yesterday but today she whines a bit when it's happening but then is right back to her normal hyper active sparkly self. I just put some flea killer on her to see if it's fleas causing this but she's not scratching at all so it seems odd that it could be. What else could this be?

I have a new puppy. Her mom was a pitbull german shepherd mix and her father was a lab. Knowing that the mothers breed is generally vicious and dangerous, would this puppy be dangerous as a pet?
