My 7-month-old pure Border Collie puppy has been chasing shadows for 3 weeks. She has a history of food aggression and possession aggression, which have improved with training. She gets plenty of physical and mental stimulation, including off-leash play, training exercises, and leash walks. Despite this, she continues to chase shadows intensely. What can be done to address this behavior?

My miniature dachshund has been exhibiting involuntary rear end wiggles and twitches, and last night he reacted with trembling when I touched his left hip. He has a history of back leg injury and has been fine walking and jumping, but I'm concerned about these new symptoms. Could these twitches be due to physical discomfort or a neurological issue, and should I be worried about his recent travel in a carrier?

My 50lb dog ate about 1.5g of smoked salmon. Should I take them to the vet or be concerned? The incident happened approximately 30 minutes ago. The dog has not vomited since eating the salmon and is acting normal, having eaten their kibble since. The dog's name is Storm, age 6, and is a 50lb husky.

My dog, a long-haired Chihuahua named Athena, has been coughing for a few weeks. She is currently taking heartworm prevention medicine but people suspect she might have heartworms. She is eating, drinking, and playing, but I'm worried about the cost of taking her to the vet. Is there anything I can do at home to help her, and what should I look out for to confirm if it's heartworms?
