I have a 5-year-old female corgi named Coco. She suddenly refuses to climb the 20 stairs in our house, which she normally does several times a day. She is eating, drinking, eliminating, and walking normally, but I'm concerned about a potential hip problem. What could be causing this sudden change in behavior, and what should I do?

My 6-year-old rescue Pit mix, Logan, is recovering from blisters on his feet due to suspected allergies. He is currently on an 8-week course of Cephalexin, and using complementary treatments like epsom soaks, iodine washes, Nettle tea soak warm compresses, and Animax cream for pain and recovery on his especially inflamed right front paw. However, he has a painful pustule under one of his toes on the right front paw. How can pustules be addressed, and what are the pros and cons of different treatment options?
