My 7-month-old Beagle had blood drawn from her left hind leg for a heartworm test. She's been limping since then but shows no signs of pain, heat, or swelling. Could the repeated insertion and removal of the needle during the blood draw cause the limping?

My senior boxer (12) had a seizure and I was holding her up. Her right side was limp and she was hacking foamy spit. She was disoriented after the 30 second episode still unable to walk or stand straight for a couple minutes. She finally got on couch and was restless until falling asleep. Her heart rate is 150s. It seems tachy-Brady. It's 150s then 40s for about 10 seconds then back to 150s for a minute or two. She is sleeping on the couch. She has cushings disease and has lost to 46 lbs. she eats drinks and poops normally. I wondered if it was actually a seizure and not stroke. Her blood sugar is regular with never having issue.

I have a 6-year-old Welsh Terrier who has stopped eating, started vomiting bright yellow fluid with red streaks, and possibly had diarrhea. She has allergies and recently had her Lyme vaccine. Her sister died from a liver shunt problem. What could be causing these symptoms?

My 13-year-old lab has chronic low blood sugar (no highs, only lows), and she recently had a seizure. My vet suspects diabetes, but my glucose meter readings have never exceeded 60, even after giving her a spoon of Karo syrup. What could be causing this and what should I do next?
