I think my puppy, Ellie, has separation anxiety and may be claustrophobic. She freaks out when I leave, showing signs like screaming, clawing, biting, pacing, drooling, and shaking. She also seems to bond more with my roommates and strangers than with me. Additionally, she gets annoyed when I walk her because she wants to eat grass and small things on the ground, but I hold her leash too short. How can I help her feel less scared of being alone in her playpen and train her without becoming a nuisance to her?

My Boxer, Kaiser, sounds like his nose is stuffed up and is breathing very hard. He has not been wanting to eat, is lethargic, and has been breathing hard after exercise. What could be causing this and what can I do to help him?

My dog, Fig, a 17-week-old puppy, had brown bile with specks that looked like dirt about 45 minutes ago. She saw a vet two weeks ago and is not on any medication. She is currently playing, eating, and potting normally. What could this be and should I be concerned?

My 1-year-old Pitbull-Boxer mix has been experiencing bumps and irritation on her stomach and inner legs for over a week, which has worsened. She licks and scratches at the irritated areas and has bad dandruff. She has also been eating off schedule lately and has been at the dog park more often. What could be causing this irritation and what treatments can help?
