My 14-year-old Shepherd-Beagle mix, Ripley, woke up with heavy breathing and abdominal contractions, refused to eat, and became lethargic. He has been on Curaflex 2 and Galliprant 100 mg, and recently had a diet change with a new type of dry food. What could be causing these symptoms and what should I do?

My dog has had kennel cough for 8 days and has been taking doxycycline for 3 1/2 days, but his symptoms aren't improving and he just threw up for the first time. How urgently does he need to see a vet?

I have a 126-pound Great Pyrenees Retriever mix named Buddy who is 3 years old. He ate 2 or 3 Krispy Kreme Mini Chocolate Crullers from the kitchen counter while I was gone. He hasn't shown any symptoms of toxicity and seems fine. Should I be worried about chocolate toxicity, and what should I watch for?

We have a street dog named Lion, about 2 years old and over 40 kilograms, with an interdigital cyst on his paw. We live in Georgia/Tbilisi where the vet services are not great. We need advice on the best topical antibiotics and treatment for the cyst, and whether oral antibiotics might be necessary.

Our dog, Muffin, a 3-year-old French Bulldog, has had occasional blood in her stool and very smelly farts. She was lethargic once but otherwise healthy, with no vomiting. What could be causing this and what can we do to help her?

We picked up our 75-pound mixed breed dog, Beau, who will be 3 in August, from an overnight service. He has a cut on his nose and mouth, a swollen eye and lip, and has been restless for the past hour. The cut is a bit raw but not bleeding, and we have cleaned it out. He seems to have spurts of restlessness, wandering the house and then laying down for a minute before getting up and moving again. What should we do?
