I have a 7-month-old Shih Tzu named Bella. She experiences episodes once a day for 3-4 hours where she shakes, refuses to move, and stares with a frightened look. These episodes can occur at any time and last for a short duration. I have taken her to the vet twice, but no cause has been found. I stopped giving her eggs for breakfast, which seemed to help for a while, but the episodes have started again. What could be causing these episodes?

I have a 3 1/2-year-old Basset hound who has been pacing, irritable, and straining to defecate with slight diarrhea since Friday. He has a good appetite but could drink more water. He sometimes cries when trying to go down stairs and paces for hours before tiring himself out. What could be causing this and should I take him back to the ER?

My dog was fine last night, but this morning he was clingy, wouldn't eat or drink much, and seemed uncomfortable with shaking back legs. His tail, which is normally up and wagging, was down. What could be causing this and what should I do?

Our 3-year-old Aussie Shepherd mix, Ruby, has recently started peeing in the main yard instead of her usual spot, and her bathroom schedule has been disrupted. We suspect she might be fearful of being scolded. What could be causing this change and how can we address it?
