My dog, Astro, a 1-year-old, cries when I touch his tail and won't wag it anymore. He only shows pain when I touch his tail or when he sits on it. Could his tail be broken or is it possibly related to his anal glands?

My small dog, Skippy, a 12-year-old Chipom, was diagnosed with a collapsed trachea a few years ago. He has been fine until yesterday when he started showing signs of distress. We live in a small town with no emergency veterinary services. We gave him Robitussin DM, which helped temporarily, but he is showing symptoms again. What can I do to help him until I can get him to a veterinarian?

My dog, Groot, a 3-year-old Jack Russell Brussels mix, has red spots on his belly that look like amoeba cells. He has been licking his paws and seems to want to reach for his spots. He's also been drinking less water and we took him on a longer walk recently. What could be causing these spots and should I be concerned about his health or life?

My dog, Gotti, is experiencing diarrhea and vomiting. His stool has an unusual odor, and he threw up this morning. His diet hasn't changed, but he has been jittery lately. What could be causing this and what can I do to help him?
