My 10-year-old beagle had a sudden episode where she became stiff, splayed out her legs, and urinated slightly after barking at the mailman. She then returned to normal within a minute. I'm unsure if this was a seizure or just anxiety. What should I do next?

My Doberman, Harley, is vomiting and has been doing so since I woke up. The vomit looks liquidy. She has had her normal dry dog food with a little hamburger on top, which is usual for her. She is about 3 years old and otherwise seems fine, with no diarrhea, pink gums, or bloated belly. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My dog has a swollen lymph node by her jaw. The in-house cytology showed it's not lymphoma, and a basic blood panel was unremarkable except for a slightly elevated white blood cell count. Should they have done a tick-borne disease panel, and what other tests or actions should be considered?

My dog, Abby, has been experiencing wheezing and snorting issues since the summer. Bloodwork, urine, fecal samples, and x-rays have shown no abnormalities. Abby was positive for Lyme disease and completed a course of antibiotics. What could be causing these symptoms, and should the vet check her nasal cavity for potential issues like nasal mites or a foreign body?

My 7-year-old male pug, Willis, was diagnosed with diabetes in December. He seems agitated and restless for the first time today, and also appears to be going blind. He is on insulin twice a day. What could be causing his restlessness and what can be done to help him relax?

I have a 14-week-old puppy named Piper who is nervous and scared, especially about going outside and down the stairs in our condo on the second floor. She used to go down the stairs on her own but now refuses to do so. What is the best way to help her overcome this fear and get her to go outside with me?
