My 11.5-year-old desexed Spoodle, who is normally healthy and active, has refused breakfast and is lethargic since yesterday morning. Today, he is reluctant to get up, has very stiff hind legs, weak movement, and falls over when trying to walk. He urinated outside but had to be carried back in. He had a small drink early this morning but refused more. He passed a small, normal-looking poo yesterday. He has no appetite since yesterday morning. I suspect he might have eaten something unusual, like dead birds or other animals, despite our efforts to keep that away from him. He also has a large hernia, which is monitored but hasn't caused issues to date. What should I do?

My dog was straining for a bowel movement, had a little blood by her tail, and is very constipated. She ate some brisket recently and has been having tummy troubles since. What else should I do for her?

My dog, Boone (5 years old), has been limping after running all morning. The pain is located slightly above the elbow on the backside of his front leg. I have already checked his paw, applied an ice pack (which caused rapid panting), and he is currently resting with his leg extended. What could be causing this pain, and what steps can I take to help him while I am out in a remote area?

My 10-year-old English Bulldog, Morgy, started vomiting and having diarrhea this morning and is now barely responding or moving. The vomit is liquidy and there might have been some rainwater ingestion. What could be causing this and what should I do?
