My 2-year-old spayed Sheepadoodle named Maggie suddenly started coughing whenever she walks around. She coughed up water and then phlegm that is mostly clear with some yellow and foam. When she lays down, she seems to be okay. Her temperature is 39.4°C. She is healthy otherwise, but I'm concerned. Is this something we should be worried about? She is up-to-date on all shots, and we took her to an outdoor training facility yesterday where she was also groomed last weekend. Her breathing is normal, and she seems to be acting okay otherwise, still eating and drinking. I wondered if it could be kennel cough, but the sound seems different than what I heard before. Can you help?

My dog had swelling on her eye and mouth last night. I gave her a half a Benadryl tablet at 3:15am, but she's not as wild and playful as usual. What could be causing this and what should I do?

A 120 lb golden retriever named Abby, aged 4 years, swallowed an Aleve 220 mg about 45 minutes ago. She was also limping on her right rear leg, which led to the administration of the Aleve without realizing its potential danger. What should be done in this situation?

My dog, Lady, is refusing to put down her back leg and yelps or bites when I try to massage it. This is the second time it has happened, and she started limping again after running on my bed. She is 7 or 8 months old and weighs 4-6 pounds. What could be causing this, and what should I do?

My dog, Riley, a 5-year-old 65-pound dog, ate 9 chicken bones on Sunday night. She is still eating, drinking water, wanting to go on walks, playing with toys, and keeps squinting. Has she thrown up since eating the bones? What should I do?

We have a 4-month-old German Short-Haired Pointer named Ollie. She nibbled on some small wood chips and spat some up. She seems okay, but we want to ensure we take the proper steps in case she swallowed one of them. What should we look for and what steps should we take?
