I have a 6-week-old Doberman puppy named Judge who has eaten significantly less than usual today. He usually eats his food quickly but today he only ate a little in the morning and half his bowl later in the day. He's been introduced to a new home and new food 3 days ago, and has been sleeping more than usual. His poops are still firm, and he's drinking water normally. He's also been growling/whining more than normal in his sleep. Does the puppy seem to be in any pain?

We have a Chihuahua/Miniature Schnauzer mix named Azee, who is 2 years old. She has developed small, circular bald spots on her skin after a grooming session. The spots are not itchy, and there have been no changes in her eating, drinking, defecating, or urinating. She is on a prescription diet (Purina Veterinary Diet NF) and has no underlying medical conditions or medications. We are concerned about the spots and whether they could be related to the grooming or something more serious like ringworm. What could be causing these spots and what can we do to treat them?

Two out of three of our dogs have begun having explosive diarrhea. The puppy, Dixie, ate another dog's poop in the front yard and started having diarrhea on Thursday morning. The second dog, Duke, started having diarrhea this morning. Dixie is a border collie lab mix, 3 months old and 17 lbs, while Duke is an Australian Shepherd mix, 3 years old and 60 lbs. Dixie has not been eating since Wednesday and is very lethargic. What could be causing this and what should we do?

My dog, Rocky, started coughing hard yesterday. He seems to be breathing okay, but sometimes shakes his head and has a stuffed nose. He is still playing, running, and walking with me. What could be causing the cough and what should I do?

My 10-week-old Australian Shepherd, Gracie, has started peeing constantly with little output, is more thirsty than usual, and seems tired. She also keeps licking herself and tries to pee every few steps. What could be causing this and what should I do?
