My 11-year-old Pekingese/Pomeranian has been having difficulty with stairs and moving from standing to sitting. She is eating, drinking, and not showing signs of pain. I have been giving her MSM/Glucosamine supplements for about a month. Is there anything else I can do to make her more comfortable?

A muscle is hanging off my dog's hind leg. She is mobile, no pain, and allowed us to clean it and apply antibiotic and wrap it. Going to the vet tomorrow. She is 12 years old and had ACL repair in March on the opposite leg. What should I do to minimize infection and reduce healing time until I can take her to the vet?

My 7-year-old Bichon has been constantly sticking out her tongue and putting it back in her mouth for the last 18 minutes. I have not seen this behavior before. Is this serious?

My 13-year-old dog is acting lethargic and won't eat. It has been 5 hours since he started acting like this. We had put Drano in a toilet upstairs and caught him drinking out of the toilet twice yesterday downstairs. Could this have anything to do with the Drano? Is there anything I can do until a veterinarian is available on Monday?

I have a 2 1/2 year old Schipperke that I rescued. For the last three weeks, she cries when trying to walk, stand up, or is picked up. She has been to the vet multiple times, had several tests including blood tests, X-rays, and Lyme disease tests, but nothing has been found. She has been on pain medicine but it's not helping. She has a fever that comes and goes, and she stands with her back arched, limping on one or both legs, and sometimes stands stiff-legged for an hour at a time. What could be causing her pain and what else can be done to help her?
