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.

My dog( 1year old shihtzu ) is a very picky eater, i have tried everything that a dog might like for example rice, curd, vegetables,sweet potatoes. He starves himself until he gets chicken and for obvious reasons i cannot feed him chicken all day, what to do And some other dog parent suggested me to stop feeding him kibbles because it is packed food and home made food is healthier for dogs, is that true?
