ED patient given GLP-1

I am hoping for some advice on how to approach one of my patients. My patient has a history of severe anorexia nervosa and still struggles with some disordered eating patterns. She has a lot of food noise and her doctor prescribed her a GLP-1 to help with the food noise. My thought is that the food noise is likely from under eating. She is not overweight at all. I feel as though prescribing her the GLP-1 was not very ethical. I am not sure if it is my place to question her doctor’s decision. How would you all approach this?

Puppy crate/potty regression

My puppy is a 5 month old black lab. She has recently been acting as if she was never crate trained and has had a couple potty accidents in the house after going over a month without them. Is this a common phase for 5 month old puppies? Or am I just doing something wrong training wise? She is fine in her crate at night or if we are in the same room as her, but as soon as we leave the room she barks and won’t stop for like 10 minutes. It feels as though we’ve lost so much progress, even though she has greatly improved in other areas.

16 week old puppy scared to play with other puppies

My puppy is 16 weeks old. Shes a lab. She hasn’t had much experience playing with other dogs since she has not had all of her shots yet and we don’t know many other people with dogs who we trust. Due to this, she is now too scared to play with other puppies and hides behind me and barks. She is not aggressive at all. Just scared and frustrated with herself. Has anyone else struggled with this? And how did you fix it?
