I noticed two lumps on either side of my 6-month-old dog Pete's neck, right above his collar area. They seem to have gotten larger and Pete wasn't eating much over the past couple of days but has since regained his appetite. What could these lumps be and what should I do?

My Dachshund might have licked a section of floor treated with Klean Strip Floor Adhesive Removal, which contains benzyl alcohol, alcohol ethoxylate, hectorite clay, and a proprietary pH activator. He seems normal now, but what steps should I take in case he ingested it?

We have a 4.5-year-old black lab mix female dog who initially limped after tripping on stairs in mid-December. The limp persisted but improved with a dog sitter's care. However, it worsened again recently, leading to a visit to a Russian-speaking vet in Astana, Kazakhstan, who diagnosed arthritis/joint pain and prescribed Rimadyl. The limp has since become more pronounced, with the dog not putting any pressure on the affected leg. We suspect a re-injury and are considering further diagnostic tests like an ultrasound or MRI. What should we do next, and is surgery the only option?

Can laser surgery help with tracheal collapse in my 13-year-old pug, Spirit, who is on medications for an enlarged heart and experiences coughing off and on all day and night? She has a good appetite but has difficulty in cold, dry weather, and we are using a humidifier at home.
