My 11-year-old German Shepherd has been making unusual digestive sounds for the past few days and has been vomiting a clear, jelly-like substance frequently. He has bad hips, a tumor in his stomach, and weighs about 85 pounds. He's on a special diet of Royal Canin prescription food. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My dog suddenly died within two hours. She was almost 10 years old, had a positive Lyme titer but no symptoms, took a joint supplement daily, and was on mature dog food. There were no recent changes in diet or behavior. She was due for her next flea treatment by pill and had been sprayed with flea spray on her coat. The day she died, she was fine in the morning but was found dead with a section of her skin and hair fallen off, her body covered with fleas and ticks, a red dotted rash on her skin, and her eyes completely red. The grass was cut, she was next to the house, and there were no new plants around. What could have caused her sudden death with these presentations in less than two hours?

My dog has had a hacking cough for a while. I didn't seem too concerned because he sheds and licks himself a lot. I noticed in his stool some hair. Here lately the cough sounds like a goose honk. Then he will gag but nothing comes up. He also is always trying to eat grass when I take him out. Any idea what it might be?

Our puppy was attacked by a larger dog and was bitten in the mouth, causing a puncture in the top of her mouth that looks like it extends into her sinus cavity. Can this heal on its own, or will she need surgery?
