My puppy, Enzo, ate a very small twig, less than an inch long and very thin. He weighs 14 lbs. Should I do something to get it out of him, or is it safe to monitor him while he tries to pass it?

We have a 10-pound dog named Presley who is 5 years old. She suddenly started limping and is in a lot of pain, holding up her right front paw. It started 5 days ago, and she seemed to get better but is now in more pain. What could be causing this and what can we do to help her?

My 14-year-old dog, Sparatickley, occasionally experiences episodes where he tenses up, has difficulty breathing, and makes a gurgling noise. These episodes happen suddenly and last for a while, but he seems fine otherwise, including during walks and when running. What could be causing these episodes, and what can I do to help him?
