My French Bulldog, Sophie, who is 2 1/2 years old, came back from daycare with a hurt leg. She is not using the leg and is in pain. We can't see any visible changes in her legs or feet, but she is tentative about putting weight on it. The daycare person thought she might have torn a muscle. What should we do?

My dog, a 2.5-year-old Corgi weighing 25 lbs, ate a durian seed about 20 minutes ago. The seed is around 2 cm wide and 4 cm long. Should we induce vomiting, and if so, how?

I have two Pomeranian females, Bela (2 years old) and Jenks (3.5 years old), who are constantly scratching and biting their back feet, leading to hair loss. They weigh between 8-10 lbs. We have tried shampoo and apple cider vinegar, but the issue persists. What could be causing this and what can I do to help them?
