I have a 9-year-old Chocolate Lab who has fallen down stairs and now avoids getting in the car or coming up stairs. He seems to favor one side when walking. Is there an animal clinic or vet school where we can take him for a discounted check-up?

My 5-year-old Labrador is generally in good health but slightly overweight. This morning, he was quieter than usual, less keen on food but still ate a dog biscuit. He is noticeably shaking around his hind quarters and back legs, seems slow and less responsive than normal. He seemed fine yesterday. What could be causing this?

My dog has small lumps in her mammary glands, sometimes coughs, and has been congested. She hasn't been spayed and was recently treated for ehrlichia. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?

We received a 3-6 week old labrador/husky mix puppy who has been vomiting and showing no interest in food. He vomited human food and bile, is sleepy, and has had blood coming from his rear. We live in a remote area with no permanent vets. What could be wrong and what should we do?

I have a 10-month-old English bulldog with two lumps on his back that seem to be swollen muscles. He was running around earlier and showed no signs of injury. When touched, he doesn't react, but if massaged, he tries to move away without crying. Could this be a muscle injury? Should I take him to a hospital today, or is it fine to wait until the morning?

My 9-year-old boxer is experiencing anal itching and discomfort, which has worsened over the past few days. She has been trying to bite and lick her anal area, and her droppings have been slimy for about a week. This started after she went swimming in the river. Could this be due to anal worms, anal gland issues, or allergies?
