My 2.5 year old lab is twitching his shoulder and fly biting and very at unease from the past two days! He recently went through a 5 day course of firotail (painkiller) as he injured his hind leg. Could the tablet cause any stomach distress?

Hi Priyanka. Not really. Twitching is mainly seen in Canine distemper. But can you post a video of shoulder twitching??

Hello, my 16 month old golden retriever seems to have developed a lump on the side just below his ribs. This is the first time I'm noticing it so it must have developed over the last couple days or so. It seems to be beneath the skin (nothing visible over the skin) and movable while examining. Could you please suggest what to do? It doesn't seem to pain or affect him at this point.
