My 2.5-year-old dog, Henry, has been whining unconsolably and showing little interest in his food since yesterday. He seems sad but is fine during walks or play. He has been pacing from the front door to the window. What could be causing this behavior, and what can I do to help him?

My dog, Scrappy, a 5-year-old West Highland Terrier mix, ate a spoonful of ice cream with a waffle cone about twenty minutes ago and has been trying to cough or gag since then. He weighs about 45 pounds and has coughed up or drooled a little bit but hasn't thrown up. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My 6-month-old Cockapoo named Griffin has a stuffy and runny nose, is lethargic, and his breathing sounds weird. He seems less enthusiastic about eating and has had reverse sneeze-type choking sounds. The symptoms started around the same time as house construction work involving drywall and paint. Should I be worried about his breathing, and what could be causing these symptoms?

My 12-year-old golden retriever, Duece, has been showing signs of canine masticatory myositis, including deteriorated face and head muscles and regular head shaking in the last couple of months. My local vet insists on a muscle biopsy before prescribing steroids, which I believe is unnecessary and motivated by financial gain. Are there any home remedies or alternative treatments I can try to relieve his pain?
