I have a 20-lb, 12-year-old dog named Hopper who is crying and seems to be in pain after falling while trying to jump on the couch.

I have tramadol but don't know how much to give him. What should I do?

My guests gave my dogs nibbles of chicken thighs that were cooked in coq au vin sauce, but without the sauce. The dogs seem okay now, but I'm worried because the chicken was cooked in wine. Are there any potential issues with this?

My dog, Pugsley, a 4-year-old Chihuahua mix, has been licking his paws excessively for about 6 weeks. I've tried various remedies like wildflower local honey, coconut oil, medicinal dog shampoo, and hydrocortisone, but the behavior continues. The skin on his paws looks red and there are bare spots on his toes. What could be causing this and what can I do to help?

My dog recently had surgery for a disc rupture and now has superficial pain in both legs but responds with the panniculus and wags her tail. She doesn't have control of her bladder yet but shows signs of awareness when about to pee. What are the chances she will walk again and what is the next thing she may regain control over as she heals?
