My 12-year-old female (spayed) shorkie is having difficulties pooping and has thick, sticky black discharge around her vulva. She also appears to be in pain while walking and yelps when making sudden movements. What could be causing these issues?

My 2.5-year-old German Shepherd, Yoda, slipped off the couch while asleep, woke up confused, and exhibited unusual lethargy, slow movement, and heavy panting for about 30 minutes. Her stomach is making loud rumbling noises, her burps smell like sulfur, and she is twitching in her sleep. She has not eaten anything unusual and is not showing changes in appetite. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?

My daughter's dog, Sophie, a 2-year-old German Shepherd mix, is whining intermittently, especially when she sits or lays down, but not when she walks or jumps. She was at the vet last week and all was fine. Should I take her to the vet today or observe her for a day?

My dog, Jack, a 9-year-old German Shepherd, has a wound on his hip area that started as a bug bite, got infected, and is now larger than a quarter in size. It occasionally bleeds and oozes yellow pus. His skin has been itchy lately, and he has allergies. I recently switched him from Benadryl to Zyrtec, but it doesn't seem to help much. What should I do?

My Boston Terrier, Mookie, has a red rash with white puss (pimple-like) under her armpits and on her stomach. She is uncomfortable and seems in pain, not wanting to walk or move. The rash appeared this morning, and she doesn't seem to be itching. What could be causing this and what can I do to help her?
