My 2-year-old bulldog, Howie, has a lesion on his neck that appeared yesterday, possibly from his collar or the new puppy biting him. Today, he is very lethargic, not moving much, and not very responsive. He ate earlier but is now lethargic. What could be causing his lethargy and what should I do?

My dog, Drako, a 1-year-old French bulldog, has been lethargic, shaking when inhaling, and not eating without coaxing since last night. He vomited water last night and has been urinating normally. He hasn't gotten his 1-year vaccinations yet but has had all puppy shots. What could be causing this sudden change in behavior, and what should I do?

We have two dogs, one 9 years old and one 13 years old, who have recently battled fleas. The younger dog has developed three bald spots on his back near the tail, about a quarter size each. He is scratching again but I haven’t seen him chewing this area, and there are no fleas. I am worried he has mange or something else. What could be causing these bald spots and what should I do?

My dog, Atlas, a 2.5-year-old, is whimpering, has a tucked tail, and is shaking. The shaking started about an hour ago, and there are no other symptoms like coughing, limping, or drooling. What could be causing this, and what should I do?

Our 13-year-old dachshund has hyperproteinurea, hypertension, and a level 3 heart murmur. She is currently taking benazepril, amlodipene (which may be discontinued), and recently started Telmisartan. She is experiencing dry heaving and loose stools since starting Telmisartan. We were given a 7-day supply of Fortiflora Pro to help with digestive side effects, but I can't find literature indicating it's effective for medication side effects. Could you comment on the effectiveness of Fortiflora Pro for this purpose?

My dog, Milo, who is 1 year old and has a history of joint and hip problems, is unable to put any weight on his left leg, is sitting down, and dragging himself around the house. There is no visible swelling or injury, and he is not currently on any medications. What should I do?
