A newborn puppy is showing abnormal behavior such as laying with its mouth open, pulling at its mother's nipple while nursing, and whining a lot, which it didn't do before. The mother is also whining and showing concern for the puppy. The puppy's rectal temperature is 100°F and it has been laying on its side a lot. The mother's back teats feel warmer than the others, and five out of eight are producing milk. What could be the issue and what should be done?

My 8-month-old dog, Max, is throwing up whole food pieces about 5 minutes after eating. He has eaten this food before, but recently switched to a different flavor and started throwing up. Could it be the food causing the issue?

My German shepherd, Onyx, ate a single grape about 5 minutes ago. He last saw a vet last year and is due for vaccines in October. He is 2 years old and not on any medications. Is there any concern or action needed?

My 9-week-old Swiss Shepherd puppy, Lachlan, has had diarrhea 7 times and vomited twice over the last few hours. He was overfed by a puppy sitter, and the vomit contained undigested food. What could be causing this, and what should I do?

I have a 5-year-old female corgi named Coco. She suddenly refuses to climb the 20 stairs in our house, which she normally does several times a day. She is eating, drinking, eliminating, and walking normally, but I'm concerned about a potential hip problem. What could be causing this sudden change in behavior, and what should I do?
