My 11.5-year-old lab is showing signs of pain, such as rapid panting when trying to stand up, getting slower to sit down, and sometimes not wanting to go on walks. She is not currently on any pain medication. How do I know when it is time to consider pain medication?

Our 9-year-old Lab named Zeus started swallowing really hard today, has upper body twitching when laying down, and is walking slowly and staying close by instead of roaming the yard as normal. He drank a little water and ate a couple of soft treats, but his breathing is heavier than usual and he is wheezing while sleeping. What could be causing these symptoms and what should we do?

Our puppy, Pearl, found small, dirty, squishy balls that look like mushrooms. She vomited 3 times shortly after finding them. Could it have been the mushrooms causing the vomiting? Should I take her to the vet?

My dog has swollen eyes and bumps on his stomach and left back leg. He has been eating fine, but this is the first time I've noticed these symptoms. What could be causing this and what steps should I take to help him?
