My 15-year-old dog, Gus, has been diagnosed with tracheal collapse caused by an enlarged heart. Despite being on medications (Hycodan, Lasix, and Vetmedin), his persistent coughing has not improved. He occasionally has periods without coughing, but it remains a significant issue, especially at night. What additional steps or alternative treatments can be considered to alleviate his coughing?

My dog, Lovie, is a small, old beagle and Chihuahua mix, at least 10 years old. She has a small mass on her lower stomach and is in a lot of pain, shaking, and has a hunched back with a tucked tail. She is still eating, drinking, peeing, and pooping, but is uncomfortable. What could be causing her pain and what should I do?

My dog, Lida, had a large cyst removed and her stitches were ripped. The vet redressed the wound, gave antibiotics, and I've been cleaning and changing the bandage. I noticed her foot is twice its normal size. Is this normal or something to be concerned about?

My dog, Kaya, a 20-month-old weighing 40 lbs, ate about 2-3 grams of psilocybin chocolate about 4 hours ago. She has shown slight stumbling, dilated pupils, and has been very relaxed. What should I do to monitor her condition and is there any medication I should avoid giving her?

My 9-month-old miniature schnauzer, Peewee, has blood in his stool and soft stool, but no personality changes or vomiting. He seems less thirsty than normal and hasn't eaten anything unusual. His gums are pink, he's breathing normally, and he's been a bit less playful but more cuddly. What should I do?

My dog sounds like he has a cold, almost like sneezing or a reverse sneeze. He is eating and drinking normally, but there is no licking or scratching. What could be causing this and what should I do?
