My 12-year-old Chihuahua fell off the couch and is limping from his right hind leg. He is not wimpering, can put some pressure on it, and his leg appears normal when lying down. He also has some difficulty with urination. He takes occasional aspirin for arthritis. Should I take him to the vet for this potential sprain?

My dog was walked today by my friend and he told me that my dog stopped, began to shake, and was foaming at the mouth. He appears fine now but I am worried something more serious may be occurring. What do you think?

My 9-year-old dog has been acting strangely—shaky, unenergetic, and tender when light pressure is applied near the back left leg joining her torso. Should I be worried?

My 8-year-old golden retriever has a wart-like tumor on her front pad that has been present for at least 6 weeks and is now causing discomfort, leading to licking and bleeding. She has been walking more on pavements recently. We visited our vet, who suggested an expensive operation to investigate for grass seeds, which I doubt. What are your thoughts on this situation?

My 54 lb. labradoodle just ate a piece or 2 of gum with sorbitol. Do we need to induce vomiting or is it a small enough amount that she'll be ok?
