Hey! My dog is lactating and it just started yesterday for the first time. She is on medicines for alopecia. Is it because of medicines?

It seems like she is suffering from pseudopregnancy. Its generally seen 1-2 months after heat period. Prevent her from licking her nipples by putting a shirt on her, as licking will stimulate more milk production. If the secretion is severe and other physiological symptoms like aggression/destress is observed then medicine like cabergolin might be required. For permanant elimination of the situation spaying can be considered but after the symptoms have subsided.

Hi, To our Ruby (a male Shih Tzu, 11 months), because of the hair knots, ticks, and fleas, the doctor suggested zero trimming, and we did it. But still, we can see a few fleas on his body,but no ticks. Is it okay to use Erina EP shampoo and powder? How frequently can I use it? Can anyone help, please
