My 11-year-old Pekingese, Kirby, is shaking, occasionally wheezing, and lethargic. He started showing these symptoms yesterday afternoon, ate a tiny bit this morning but is not drinking. He feels very warm during wheezing episodes and is tucking his tail and raising his butt while lowering his front end. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?

My 12-year-10-month-old pit mix, Nevaeh, is experiencing severe pain in her back hip after twisting it while running. She is unable to put any weight on her back right hip, is panting heavily, and sometimes cries. She has been taking Bioactive Complete Joint Care supplements and has a good appetite, but no recent vet visit. What should I do for her pain and should I take her to the vet?

My dog ate several raisins about 10 minutes ago. She weighs between 13 and 15 pounds, is a golden retriever/Australian shepherd mix, and is about 10 weeks old. She seems fine but I'm worried because I found out raisins are poisonous. What should I do?

My newborn puppy, Blue, has a hard, large lump on his neck, and I noticed a little red piece on his foot that is slightly swollen. He is about 10 days old and seems lethargic. What could this be, and should I seek immediate veterinary attention?
