I have a 16-year-old Pomeranian named Chewy who has always had a sensitive neck and a heart murmur. Recently, he has been coughing and gagging 15-20 times a day without any apparent reason, even though he has had a blood test which showed no issues. What could be causing this and what can be done to manage it?

My dog, Mick, has heartworms and I need a prescription for doxycycline. I don't have the money for a vet. Mick's stomach hurts, he has lost weight, and is constantly hungry despite being fed three times a day. What can I do?

My dog is frantic, breathing at 120 breaths per minute, and frantically licking one paw. There are no visible injuries or known poison exposure. The behavior started suddenly, and the dog cannot settle. I gave the dog a bath with baking soda, and the breathing rate has calmed to 80 breaths per minute after giving one baby aspirin. I am concerned about a possible bug bite or poison, but we are in a hotel with no visible insects, and the dog walks on blacktop and grass. What could be wrong with the dog, and what should I do?
